I understand that in a lot of restaurants the tips go into a common fund which is then doled out, percentage-wise, to all the workers. I've never been one to subscribe to the ethic of "to each according to his need". I've been in restaurants where the food has been average at best but the service, exceptional. When I leave cash, especially a tip larger than the usual percentage, I ALWAYS inform the wait person (and sometimes the manager) of my opinion both of the food and the service. What they choose to do with the tip I left after I leave is up to them. But they'll at least know why I left it. |

Note that tip income is the property of the server, not the restaurant owner. The restaurant can require that tips be pooled and shared among other employees who normally receive tips. But, it is illegal for the restaurant owner to take a cut of the tip income. It is also illegal for other non-tipped employees, like cooks and dish washers, to receive a cut of the tip income.

Do you have a source for that information? If the tip income is the property of the server, I don't understand how the employer can give it to someone else, who never receives tips.

Correct. But, if the employer does not take the credit, then they must pay the minimum wage to the server directly. So, apparently, the server would receive the minimum wage plus their share of the pooled tip income that could include cooks and dish washers, but not the owner.

A discussion works better when folks are polite to each other.
