owner of my job (franchise, food) just told everyone he is not increasing pay even though minimum wage went up on the 30th in my state. he says it's because we are tipped employees, so we're technically already getting $2 above tipped minimum wage… mind you our tips are shared and have never even reached $2 per hour. this is sick and twisted. i am trying to figure out if it's even legal
