> Question that rises from this sort of thing happening is that, if they are actually making what can be considered a lot of money You can make over 6 figures at certain jobs/shifts. It's one of the few jobs where thats possible if you don't have a degree or are skilled in a trade. The entire industry is a hugely exploitive closer*ck without many easy answers. The margins in food and beverage are razor thin so having this messed up system where you don't have to pay your labor a living wage kind of perpetuates itself. There is benefit on both ends of the deal. At least for front of house employees. Back of house just gets screwed on every level.
