In this spirit of keeping this up to date, I'm moving back to New Orleans at the end of this month! I'm super excited but kind of scared. I'm looking forward to getting a "real" job and not waiting tables. Im not exactly sure where or what I'll be doing, hopefully it will be something where I can use this handy dandy degree I acquired about a year ( Read more... )

Things to do: Marry Chuck.

As for being a waitress, those nights happen. Depending on the restraunt, they may happen a lot. When I did a similar service every other day I got jipped in tips. I was a busboy, getting a portion of the waiter's tips. 1 waiter regularly gave us $5 for the night in tips when we were supposed to get 20% of what they got. Luckily, the other waiters actually gave us the normal amount usually.

wow, 20% Hmm lemme think. Say I make 15% tips... and I give 2.5% tipout of all my sales...

If I sold 600... I should make atleast $90 (haha) 2.5% of that would be about 15... and 20% of what I made would be about 18, so I guess that isnt too bad, kind of high tipout.

Yeah I used to have the same thing happen to me when I was a host at the last restuarant I worked at, except they were allowed to just give whatever they wanted, so Id get anywhere from $1 - $15 a shift, pretty crummy.

Im a fan of just taking out tipout so I dont have to worry about being fair.

But yeah, guess it comes with the territory, just wish it didnt.
