Seriously, If I was making €80 in tips on top of the wage in ONE shift, I'd go back to flaring and pouring drinks. There is inflation and then there is young people living above their needs, thinking that they deserve to earn thousands a week on jobs like catering / bar work.

How about braindead OF thots making millions a month from corrupting the youth.

It's a snowball effect into mass societal degeneracy if we were comparing each other by how much money someone makes regardless of how.

There are 2 types of people.

1 who accept everything as a given and adapt (brainrotten cun*s and criminals)

2 giants of spirit willing to die in order to make a change in the world for the better

I'm sick of seeing those youngsters complaining about inflation while they're obviously living above their means. In the last video I saw one of them girls was complaining about her €8 Starbucks coffee which she gets daily. I get a pound of coffee for less money. Literally 1-2 years of work experience expecting to take home thousands a month

I think most are maxed out in debt because of all this pretending to have money. that and knock off fake "designer" junk.

I offered a 14 year old on this street $100 for 1/2 hour of work (more like 10 minutes) raking up some pine cones. the kid didn't even come over and say thanks for asking but no. their parent told me no before they even asked the kid and left it at that. that is normal in Canada now with youth. #lazy #entitled

"Entitled" is a good word.

This will make their life hell tho

well, complaining on tiktok about inflation wont change that.

I guess I see, that you mean you hate them complaining.

I just wanted to point out, that no matter how much they complain, this won't get better for them, and they will have a miserable life until they learn to value effort and hard work. (Also until they learn un-aimed hard work is also pointless...)

Most probably noone will solve this for them. It serves noone, that they demand everything as early in life as they are for putting no effort in it.

Then they are left off waiting for someone to get them out from the hole they dug for themselves.

or the ones who think working at [insert mall retail store] or [insert fast food chain] are careers and want to make top dollar while not understanding that overcharging for all this stuff comes in part from too high wages for high schooler after school part time jobs pretending to be real jobs.

all words and noise out of their mouths, no understanding or sense

Not sure if she makes wages. Usually servers here in the US only get paid around $2 an hour, so paychecks usually 0 because the tips offsets them.

Servers literally live of their tips πŸ˜‚

I thought there was a minimum wage in the US and didn't they recently raise that? I thought it was something like $12-15 hour? If she doesn't get any wage, fair enough but even then $80/shift isn't bad. I've worked decades in this business and then dropped it after COVID. Fun fact, I was getting 10 Deutsch mark an hour 30 years ago and today the minimum wage in catering is €13/h. So an average shift will net you ~60 EUR plus tips which are basically not worth mentioning these days.

So yeah, I'm not working for €13/h with 30 years of experience, hotel training, graduation as restaurant professional and thousands invested in my Cocktail trainings and certificates. I make more money staying at home.

It really depends of the state. I’m a waiter and I get 2.15 an hour πŸ˜‚ not sure if she gets a wage tho, most likely not (hooters).

And yeah, it is actually pretty crazy what waiters/tresses can make in a 4 hour shift. Something I leave with 200$ on a weekend of 5 hours. But then again, is a gamble. Sometimes you make good and sometimes you don’t.

Don’t tell me 13 euro? In Venezuela I worked for $2 a day for full 8 hours 🀣🀣🀣 countries currencies are fucked

I didn't know that you also work in catering. πŸ’ͺ

That wage though, makes me understand why Americans tip 20% but I think it's ridiculous to expect anyone to almost work for free because "you get tips". Tips can vary a lot and that's not a "secure income".

That's a steal though.

Couple thoughts--

First off, people should be tipping at least 15% (20% I would say should be average for good service)...

Having said that, she's working as a waitress...and at Hooters. That's not something I'd call a "career", so compensation shouldn't be expected to be on a par with a programmer, teacher, plumber or stockbroker.

Want better pay? Invest in yourself so that you can add value to society...simple as that.

That's an American thing. 10% is standard in Europe. That's why we love American clients πŸ˜‰

Maybe, but my standard tip is 20%--if you're a good waiter, entertain me so that my dining experienced is enhanced, you're likely to get 25%.

If you're a bad waiter, you'll get 15%...anything less that...well you'd have to "earn" that somehow by being spectactularly bad...

That part I don't understand. Why do you have to have a "standard" 20% tip? They shall get the money their job worth, and anything above worth a tip in my opinion. Maybe I don't see something.

But what is it β€œworth”? I guess is a cultural standard and it varies from each person.

Based on my experience, some people don’t like to have conversations, they just want a fast service, others want to talk, others want to not be interrupted while eating at all.

Based on those β€œmetrics” my service tip worth would vary from person to person. It is subjective, thus a very subjective (and random) reward for my work.

I guess some people did the math and 15% to 20% is that what they came with for a β€œstandard” tip, some people will leave less and some people more but it usually evens out.

Hmm, interesting opinion!

Maybe I would separate serving cost from other entertainment costs. So serving cost shall be included everywhere in the price, because you get served. The entertainment cost fully depend on individual preferences. That could be the tip.

Also would be interesting to see the waiters pay per country compared to standard tip and other general job pays like in McDonalds, or working in a supermarket.

Maybe we would see, that employers give less to their waiters proportionally to the standard tip in that country.
