The truth doesn't matter! My feelings about what the truth should be is more important.

How religious.It should = $ 30
Well no, obviously, since they get $1 back in change.It should = $ 30
$ 9 X 3 = $ 27 + $ 2 was given to the waiter as a tip. Total is = $ 29
There total bill was $25 + $2 (tip) = $27How ?
Id feel bad if I left a tip that low. Average service would be "keep the change" in my mind. Too bad it isn't considered etiquette to consider a tip as a part of the cost of eating out (or better yet they get paid by minimum wage laws and we do away with tipping like everybody else).And these cheapskates are only leaving an 8% tip!!

Why would a good server settle for minimum wage when they can reliably get three times that much?(or better yet they get paid by minimum wage laws and we do away with tipping like everybody else).

All the good restaurants.Reliably? Where?
All the good restaurants.
A good server, backed up by a good kitchen staff, can do way better than minimum wage.

Reliably isn't very reliable.Why would a good server settle for minimum wage when they can reliably get three times that much?

Should the kitchen staff even be considered? After all, they get paid minimum wage. Their poor skills or lack of attention should be seen as separate. It is a team effort, the pay is extremely uneven (I dont think servers should have to share their tips because of this. They aren't guaranteed the same minimun wage like the rest of the non-tipped staff).A good server, backed up by a good kitchen staff, can do way better than minimum wage.

I've been through this before.
The best servers I know vehemently oppose making them work for substandard money. They auditioned their employers.
"Lemme see your kitchen.
I wasn't impressed by that guy over there when I ate here. I won't work a shift if he's on staff."
Maybe I just know more motivated and capable people than the ones you knew.
I know a woman who makes $15/ hour at Steak'n'Shake. Most factories around here don't pay that. And it's mostly cash <wink wink>. Her insurance sucks. But she does a lot better than most young single women without college degrees. Requiring her to work for minimum wage would be cutting her pay down to what the slacker teens get.
She'd probably just stop. Nobody at her restaurant would benefit.

Yes.You know minimum wage isn’t $5/hr., yes?
True that.Two issues many people get lost in the story not understanding the facts.
This is how many of them overall? And we aren't talking about something like gambling, but rather people's lives. A system that only works for a few isn't functioning well. Medicine and science reject such things it outright ("it works for a few" is a deadly plague of a mentality when it comes to addiction treatment and such programs lack evidence to support their efficacy). The economy itself is something that really only benefits a few, and we are dealing with those consequences.I've been through this before.
