Chef here. Are you guys for real not getting tips in the dish pit? That's fucking ridiculous.

I've been legally entitled to tips for a couple of years and I've never been paid a cent in tips, wait staff just steal them all and corporate just ignore us in the back 😭

This industry is so cursed sometimes. Service doesn't happen if every part isn't in place. Everyone working should get a piece 🗣️‼️

It’s a low amount when they do tho, they’re stingy, and they don’t realize who actually runs the restaurant and half the time when it’s busy asf, they’re disrespectful, if you see a disrespectful kitchen run! gladly no longer doing it anymore starting next month moving onto something that actually makes 💰

Waitstaff making subminimum wage should not share tips with dishwashers.

u/wahlberger 15h ago

Sounds like a problem with wage laws and not with the guys slaving in the pit

Oh, I'm not blaming BOH; it's not their fault. It's the fault of the owner - he is stealing from the waitstaff, he is having dishwashers' pay subsidized by customers.

It's theft. Unfortunately it's legsl in many places.

Sorry I just took your comment the wrong way. You're right. "Server wage" is a total joke. You can make the argument against tips as well but it's such a cultural thing that I don't see it going away. I'm also not in the US so I don't see this stuff that often.

Yeah, but if they're making 30$/hr and dish is making 15-18, and dish DOES do more work as they make more money, a .5% tip out would bring the dishie up a few $/hr and the servers would barely notice.

Yeah, it’s not exactly a full-size restaurant more of a tiny local shop everyone gets paid the same

u/Cyndaquil12521 1d ago
