Well that is where all the money comes from. A waitress makes about 6.50 an hour, and the rest comes solely from tips.
A good waitress can make a lot of money from tips. This restaurant is a lot busier than the old one I used to work at, so I am guessing on a slower night, I will make around $40, and on a better night around $100.
However, that is just a guess. We'll see once I start.
I am happy about it. The people who work there seem really nice, and it's a much nicer situation than the last waitressing job I had (did all the dishes, seating, and waitressing for an entire restaurant of up to 40 tables.)
Anyway, it will be money coming in, and that's the important thing. |

Waitresses actually recieve a smaller minimum wage than a regular worker, simply because we do get tips.
$6.75
per hour for a waitress
$7.75
per hour for a regular worker
$7.25
per hour for people younger than 18 |

You have to take into account that our dollar is worth less than yours. So when I am making 6.75 and hour, I am essentially making about 6.04 in USD.
Then, you have to account for the taxes they take each pay check, which leave you with a lot less.
I may as well be getting paid 3.50 an hour. |
