okay, really. i mean, how can they get away with this? paying a person less than half of minimum wage on the assumption that their tips are going to compensate? there was another posting for a breakfast waitress (not a waiter, mind you) for $4/hour. i just don't see how that's fair. and i thought it was kind of sexist to ask for a waitress. i kind of wanted to apply, just to see what they'd do.

so yeah. that's all i got.

bonnaroo was sweet. i'm still recovering. i'm a peely bastard too. that's what i get for going out in the sun like i did.

peace.

they have to pay you minimum wage if your tips don't add up to the 7.15 an hour or whatever min is these days.

still, i would not want to be a bellboy for minimum wage.
or have to work hard enough to earn over $4 an hour in tips, just to break even.

i almost took a job for $6/hour in chicago valet parking cars.

$6/hour plus tips would be amazingly nice.

So... are you gonna take the job at least until you can find a better one? At least it would be money.
