What is the legality of this?

I work at a theatre as a server. I go into theaters and take orders for food and what not, and this pays $7.25/h in Tennessee plus tips. At my theater we have people whose job it is to come in and clean the theatre before the next show, but they are only here on the weekends as set by mgmt. To clarify mgmt could have them come in on the weekdays, but choose not to. On the weekdays the servers are expected to go in and clean the theatres ourselves. The problem is that the people who come in and clean get payed twice my base pay almost and is a whole other job under this employer's roof. What is the legality of making the servers do someone else's job for less in the state of Tennessee.
