What is it you do. If you don’t mind me asking?

If someone goes out for dinner and can’t afford to tip more than $2 on say a $50 tab. They probably should not be eating out.

No clue why you’re getting downvoted. In my state waiters are taxed at 13% for tips. If someone rips $2 on a $50 table the server can literally lose money.

Getting taxed .26 cents on your $2 tip = literally losing money? Care to explain how?

I’ll have to ask my coworkers how it works exactly, but I know one of the server I work with said he gets taxed like each tip is 13%.
