> This entire post was about informing people the deception involved around the credit card tips. If grubhub stands by their practices, then spreading this information around won't hurt their business. This is actually how it works for credit card or cash tips to waiters in restaurants as well. This is not unique to GrubHub. The "minimum wage" is not a base income with all tips being just gravy on top. "Minimum wage" is a concept introduced by the government that puts a lower floor on how much you make. If the tips by themselves aren't enough to put you over "minimum wage" the restaurant must legally cover the shortfall.
