sketchy workplace?? help

sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for this!! but it seems like most people here know their stuff. so im 17, first job ever, ive been bussing (hired on the spot- the old busser quit) for at this family owned restaurant in FL. ive worked maybe 10 hours there already. pay is under the table cash. the first problem is that they havent paid me yet and are entrusting me to write down my hours on a piece of paper. i don't know if its an issue or not but it just seems weird to me. problem two is they havent shared any tips with me, i dont really mind but the owner told me i should work there because i'll get good tips. are they supposed to split them with me or are they not because i'm a new hire? problem three is they kept interrupting my break…


sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for this!! but it seems like most people here know their stuff.

so im 17, first job ever, ive been bussing (hired on the spot- the old busser quit) for at this family owned restaurant in FL. ive worked maybe 10 hours there already. pay is under the table cash. the first problem is that they havent paid me yet and are entrusting me to write down my hours on a piece of paper. i don't know if its an issue or not but it just seems weird to me.

problem two is they havent shared any tips with me, i dont really mind but the owner told me i should work there because i'll get good tips. are they supposed to split them with me or are they not because i'm a new hire?

problem three is they kept interrupting my break (law says i get a 30 minute break every 4 hours of work.) and they want me working 9 hours tomorrow which is 1 more than what's legal (8 hours on a school night.)
should i just not show up tomorrow if they don't pay me tonight? it's not hard work but I have a feeling they're gonna keep treating me like this.
