    Thank you for your belated abuse.

    "Definition: The hourly federal minimum wage rate for employees who receive tips is currently $2.13 an hour. " http://jobsearch.about.com/od/minimumwage/g/minimum-wage-tipped-employees.htm

    Looks like it might be increasing "...to at least $9 an hour." http://http://jobsearch.about.com/b/2013/09/29/minimum-wage-increases-for-2013.htm

    "Wal-Mart has come under fire in the US overnight after a store in Ohio launched a campaign looking for food donations for its own employees".http://www.irishtimes.com/news/consumer/walmart-launches-food-appeal-for-walmart-staff-1.1599888

    Plus tips.....plus tips.

    What mocha said was that the $2.xx an hour is not the only thing they get. If they don't make enough in tips to reach the regular minimum wage then the business needs to make up the difference.

    I wrote to you as you've written to us. You've gotten naught but the treatment you've earned. As you are not well-educated in American laws and regulations, and my education happens to be in culinary business management, and my trade is pastry chef (which is a management position) you may take my word for it. The wage to which you refer, Sir Know-it-all, is the legal minimum one may pay those in tippable positions in addition to tips, UNLESS their tips plus that wage do not amount to the federal minimum wage. Honestly, Dear, if you insist upon lecturing me (us) about the laws in the country in which I (we) reside and you do not, might it be suggested that you either read all the way through, or hire one of our attorneys to read and interpret them for you? Thanks for playing! Have a nice day!

    Oh. And listen well to Mister LetLovinTakeHold. They make 'em sharp and quick in the Bluegrass State.
