Please understand that once upon a time people got paid a normal wage and tips were “extra” revenue. Today, employers take advantage and in some type of jobs employees depend on tips because their pay is very minimal. Employers practically guarantee that they can live off the tips. One such trade is waiters/waitresses and if you have noticed that many times the gratuities are automatically added to the bottom line of the bill. I was shocked to find out that they do not earn a wage or salary from the restaurant but are hired for tips only.
