> If you aren't in a university area or someplace that would have people with flexible schedules and a need for short bursts of money, you would have hiring issues in general, because people earning minimum wage would just go to a less demanding job with more convenient hours. In other words, without tips you'd have to pay people more. But didn't we already know that?

I think the key is you’d have to pay them very significantly more. I have a buddy that can earn $200 in tips in 5 hours on a busy night. Nobody is going to pay a waiter $40/hour.
