That is unfair, and wrong, and doesn't give anyone an incentive to do a good job. Why should I do a good job, if I can do a lousy job and get the same tip money that the chick who does a good job gets? Why should I do a good job, if the best I can hope for is whatever the lousy chick gets?[/QUOTE]
I agree! Tip pooling needs to be done away with. A gift to one person becomes the property of that one person, imHo, and what they agree to do or chose to do with their gift is up to them. Forcing the "gifted" to share their gift is robbery. Forcing them to share their gift under threat of losing their job is extortion But, that is not my responsibility. I walked in for a hamburger and a Coke.
This whole issue wouldn't exist if wait staff were paid a
full wage and tipping didn't exist.
