I can live with that, can they? Look around you and ask if there's more people who need low paying jobs or more people who need waiters.
Or he can simply hire more $3/hr people and the tips would add up to be less per person. There's quite a difference between $3 to $17. As far as "making the cost", if the consumer pays it anyway, wouldn't it just be passed on in form of raising price of each order?And if the manager was paying me the $17/hr I was making, he wouldn't be able to cover the cost of what I and the 20 other waitresses who worked there were worth.
I want to do that, and I'll gladly do it for $3 an hour if it was guaranteed 8 hours a day (if it were legal too). I'm not homeless or diseased, I'm not particularly poor or needy either, so save those insults. You're right, why should the manager do otherwise if somebody like you would it as part of their job? Sounds like you fully understand the power of the man with the buck (manager) but dislike it when the other guy (customer) wants to exercise it. You are perfectly comfortable telling me "I bust my ass, look at all the things I do" and defending the manager's decision to use you for cheap.Oh, and the silverware thing. That is one of the jobs of the waitress. Always has been. There is no position in the store created to do that and nobody else in any position would do it. Who wants to stand around waiting for silverware to wrap (since there is a finite amount and it is washed multiple times all day long and rewrapped)? No manager in their right mind would pay for that when the $3/hr person can do it in their duties.
