Let's all assume since in today's world $520 a week is not a living wage, the person deiced not to take a vacation.
So, a person working for $13 an hour working 52 weeks a year will earn $27,040.
That is not a living wage that is why I always leave a tip.
Well said, 100% agree. Tipping is the only way for them to make decent money. Without people tipping it will be even more difficult than it already is to find good restaurant help.
