"Word on the street" is not a verified source.

If this were true, it's time y'all step up and tip your servers more.

What’s the source of the rumor?

Edit: Salaries from Indeed

I understand....just posted for info purposes. But that poster isn't just a random person..they do have some inside info regularly.

Are they reducing the hourly pay of an existing employee? Or offering a potential employee a lower rate than a previous year?

I read it as cutting existing salary...which would mean only one thing....sales aren't where they need to be.

How can I say this without getting into controversial politics? DH speculated that when tips became non-taxable, employers of tipped personnel would decrease their base pay (which is lower than non-tipped minimum wage because tips are expected to make up the difference and more) because the employees will be keeping more of their tips. So maybe cutting existing salary can mean more than one thing. I have no knowledge, just speculation.

Or sales are great. Tips are great. Hourly pay is higher then necessary.

The states set the tipping wages so they can't go below the state guidelines. They can only cut the pay if they were already paying more than the state minimum.

Good to know.

Just wanted to share... The Birnbaum book continues to drop in price on Amazon, as we get later into 2025. I just bought a 2nd copy yesterday, under $11. We'll be using the coupon this weekend, and then again in December.

Late to the thread...

Coupon? Would that be 20% off cake Bake shop?

Yes, that’s the one and it’s readily accepted at the restaurant.
