While there may very well be a higher proportion of college students in front-of-house jobs, the idea that that's the majority of such people is similar to the idea that minimum-wage jobs in general are "for teenagers", and thus shouldn't need to provide a living wage.
They all need better pay, but tipped minimum wage being lower is a further travesty (even with the provision that they have to take home at least minimum wage at the end of each day), regardless of what percentage of college students make up that workforce.
- willcipriano 5y agoMy point is if you feel what FOH staff take home is a travisty, then you should be apaplectic with rage when you look towards the back of house. I don't see that often, it's mostly complaints about bartender and waitstaff earnings.
- danaris 5y agoI mean, I try to ration my rage (there's a lot to be upset about and only so much blood pressure to go around), but yes, I think they all deserve much higher pay, in general.
