FIX YOUR OWN HAMBURGER!

Posted on December 27, 2017 by

I didn’t know until I looked it up that a federal law allows waitpersons to be paid only half the minimum wage.  The restaurant owners must have a powerful lobby, because  The Trump Labor Department now wants to give control of waitpersons’ tips  to their bosses.  It’s one of Trump’s  vengeful moves to undo Obama’s safeguards. Oh wait–Trump owns restaurants too, doesn’t he.

 

 

About Nan Mykel

At 79, I was just about to stop keeping a journal, but that felt like accepting that growth was finished. I don't want to be finished, yet! I'm 80 now, and struggling to communicate with you, if you'll come and set awhile. P.S. My how time flies! I'm 82 now.

    I have waited tables for 21 year’s making 2.13 an hour. This is why tipping is so important! I wrote a post titled Restaurant Etiquette if you’d like to read it.
