The tipped minimum wage is so small that it is basically zero. If menu prices rise then that same 15% tip rises as well. Comparing the tipped minimum wage and the ordinary minimum wage is not really a complete story.
- dfxm12 5y agoI'm not trying to give a complete story (if you are interested in a more complete story, I do suggest the linked article), just context as to how/why norms around tipping can change.
- lipnitsk 5y ago> The tipped minimum wage is so small that it is basically zero That depends on the state. For example, all west coast states have the same minimum wage regardless of tipped or non-tipped. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipped_wage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipped_wage > In the state of Alaska, California, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, same minimum wage are applied for both tipped and non-tipped employees. Tips collected by employees in these states will not offset employer's obligation to pay the wage, and tips is the additional income beyond the wage paid by employer.
