They are not servers but they do hand food products over a counter, or work a register. They are paid 6 dollars an hour and a share of tips. Obviously their salary always exceeds minimum wage with the tips, but I find this very shady.
It is the sort of job where you would expect everyone in there is *at least* getting paid minimum wage, probably guess they get paid a little more. So when customers come in and tip, they think they are giving these workers a bonus. Instead the owner only pays them 6 dollars an hour and lets the tip jar supplement their salary.
** Edit: Minimum wage is 7.25 an hour
Thoughts? I am sure this is legal, but it seems sketchy af to me? yes no?
