In Texas waitresses get $2.72 an hour.
The IRS assumes and assesses a 15% tip.
Thank you.
The better the business,
the better the tip.
The whole point of this
debate is weather those
in the service industry
can claim their entire
compensation as wages,
while allowing tips to be
tax free. Total amounts
dictate final retirement
amounts.
Restaurants run on very
slim margines, and I will
admit that most of the
workforce is under
educated. It’s very
evident when there’s a
high turnover of employees
trying to better their futures.
I didn’t set the industry
standards. They are what
they are, or there
wouldn’t be any
restaurants.
Case in point....
When was the last time
you tipped a McDonalds
server for serving up
your Big Mac in record
time?
