    This is a perfect example of how explorative tipping is to customers. The fact that these people would rather get tips then make 30 an hour (which is really good not just for the food industry but for lots of places) tells me they are used to customers paying there monthly wages at more then 30 an hour. The servers especially cry because they don't make enough as base pay they cry when they get a 30 an hour base pay there is no pleasing these complainers. I would say let them go back to a tiny base pay with tips and watch how little they earn because the restaurant is working on a ticket system where you pay a ticket price not a price at the end of the meal with all the things your ordered. This is insane.

    • @mightisright
      @mightisright 8 месяцев назад +1

      Tipping doesn't belong in America. It's like bargaining at a Cairo Bazaar. Post the price of the meal and pay that price. While we're at it, INCLUDE ALL TAXES in the price! Couldn't be simpler.

      @graphite7135 4 месяца назад +1

      It says tiping is apart of the ticket so the waiters should have done the elementary school math. 15 an hour with "tips" or a very generous 30$ an hour, that their fellow american "normal" waiters don't get.

  • @coreymillia
    @coreymillia Год назад +21

    So $30 an hour without tips is worse than $4 an hour with tips. What they're saying is there is no solution to being a server, your life is going to suck until the end.

    I spent months applying for a job at casa bonita as soon as positions opened up. I've been a huge fan of both south park and casa bonita since I was a kid and knew I wanted to work there as soon as I heard matt and trey bought the place and it wasnt closing down anymore. I applied for 4 different positions that had openings. All of which I have experience for since I've been working in food service since I was 16. I never got a single email or call back from anyone. I even re-applied several times before positions closed. Not a single call or email back. As stupid as it sounds, this would have literally been my dream job.
    The pay is around the 30 dollar range but I would have been happy working for minimum wage. It makes me so angry and sad that these people got my dream job and are acting like this. This is what happens when you ignore hard workers like me who were actually passionate about working for matt and trey and instead hire a bunch of entitled scum who want a bigger paycheck. I guarantee you I could do whatever their job is 10 times better than them. But I'll never be given a chance.

      It's part time work to begin with and always has been. It is typically filled by people who need additional income or an entry level job in food services such as a teenager entering the employment market. It is not supposed to be a money making career that people can support themselves or a family by working there. Unless you are an educated food services management level employee. No one who works the entertainment, cooking, or wait staff can expect to make a living wage at this location because it is not skilled labor type work.

      That's also because it is part time employment. It is not skilled labor type of work that allows for full time employment and benefits. This is the case with most restaurant environments and they are usually entry level jobs. Unless you are a college educated experienced manager, you cannot expect to earn full time employment and benefits unless you were actually offered that via a signed offer letter when you are hired. This isn't corporate salaried level employment. It is supplemental income or entry level unskilled labor. You should always understand whether or not you are earning tips before agreeing to work in a restaurant environment and entry level jobs.

      @CasaBonitaSucks Год назад +1

      @krystalMtn5697 and for the first 5 months of employment, there was a signed tip pooling agreement in place. Less than 24hrs before the official soft opening ownership changed that policy and presented a new conditional work agreement of $28 per hour and employees were told to sign it and bring it back the next day or loose employment.
      Also restaurants are not open part time. Restaurant work is not part time employment. Companies want part time employees to avoid paying benefits.
      Why is the issue unskilled labor earing 2 much?? Shouldn't the conversation be about the over 700 jobs in Denver, many of which require a 5yr degree paying less than $30??
      Look down your nose at restaurant workers all you want but my girlfriend is a server in a restaurant and she earns anywhere from $300 to $700 per day. She is going to college and more than likely, after she graduates, she will earn less than she is now, but people like you will think better of her.

      It is not a matter of looking down on anyone. Restaurant work and some other business fields have always been designed to be unskilled labor, entry level employment, and part time supplemental income, usually filled by teens who are entering the employment market, college students who need flexible limited hours of work, or those who need to supplimemt their income, whatever the reason may be. It was never intended to be full time employment and paid at wages comparable to skilled, degreed employees, or to pay for anyones lifestyle. No unskilled labor job should ever be paid on the same level as those who have spent the years, effort, funds and made the aacrifices they did to put themselves through college and get a higher education than what federal goverment requires in the US.
      You simply fail to understand that this is a business model that was intentionally created this way or why it was purposely done this way. Managers are generally the only degreed fulltime employees who have paid benifits and experince with education in their field. It is a perk provided to those who have skills and education to offer as part of their personal employment marketability. It is one reason people make the decision to get higher education after public school. You would never pay a Dr, lawyer, manager, Network Tech, or a lot of CSR jobs the same wages you would pay unskilled labor.
      Understand that calling them unskilled is not a derogatory term, as you seem to be interpreting it. I am not saying those people are in any way ignorant, incapable, or not hard working individuals who's employers might benefit from hiring them. It is simply a fact of life that nearly anyone can walk into certain jobs and not need any prior experience or specific education in order to fulfill that jobs requirements. This is not true of those who work full time and are burdened with extra issues to juggle like finances, employee management, or run the daily operations of such places along with required to know the laws and health codes under which restaurants are operated. Or work in specialty areas of employment that require extra schooling, knowledge, experience, and maybe a degree. Given you are dating someone in that very stage of life you should understand this. Also those who leave college are considered to be entry level skilled workers who cannot be paid at the same levels of those who have 10 years of experince, or more, to offer along with a degree in their respected fields. Just another fact of life. I do not look down upon anyone and have worked my own unskilled, part time jobs in life along as well as experienced, degreed, salaried employee jobs. I also paid my own way through college as an adult who did not get to go to college after high school or had parents, or financial support, to help pay for it. That is how it is done by those who want to progress in life in the US. Wisdom, maturity, experince, education, and finances are all personal skills that one can only aquire as one gets older.

      @krystalMtn5697 I personally know around 15 millionaires. Guess how many of them have a college degree? Just one!! As a matter of fact the majority of millionaires don't have a college degree. Oh and you forgot to mention the over 700 jobs in Denver many of which require a 5yr degree earning less than $30 per hour. Higher education really helped them out. They might be smart but I bet they feel pretty stupid.
