some do share all tips evenly so your preference towards a
certain server can be spread around. it's not at all what
i think makes sense.

i have relatives that do accounting and payroll for various

My son managed a few bars and staff turnover was a major problem. He
was forever firing servers, most often for theft. They had a thousand
and one ways to steal from the customers and from the business. Crooked
staff are the reason there are so many security cameras.

We used to go a Saturday afternoon blues jam at a local pub. There was a
waitress there who was notorious for short changing. It was so bad that
when she handed me my change I would just leave my hand out and wait for
the rest of my change. She would end up giving me more change but
knowing that she had been caught didn't seem to deter her from trying it
again. We met some friends there one day and I warned my friend about
the waitress and her short tips and, sure enough, she tried to pull it
on her. I stopped ordering drinks from the waitress and would go up to
the bar and get them myself.

My granddaughter's baby daddy manages the restaurant down the street.
Not bad for a baby daddy.
He'd rather be a server - more money. My guess is that they enhanced his
terms of employment to get him to stay.

I sure wish he was on better terms with my daughter because the
restaurant is a pretty great one. That guy used to give us 50% discounts
or ever cover the entire tab. Those were the days.
Is he a humble Hawaiian?
