Reply to comment by ParkingHelpful2690 in News 12 Poll: Should Connecticut raise servers' wages? by jaydecay123

they don't want to listen to that, just want to say yes so they feel better about themselves. Every waitress I know would much rather have the current system because tips are often much higher than minimum wage. The only issue is non peak days/times

The non peak times are just cushion for the weekends. I would clear $1000 from Thursday to Sunday easy. Even on slow weeknights in Milford I would make atleast $100. That’s not the amount of money it used to be but it’s better than being a desk jockey and I liked socializing with customers. It’s the least oppressive job, imo. If you don’t like a restaurant or their management you can move on to the next within a weeks training. Power to the people. Lol
