      Bartenders will generally split off a certain percentage of their tips with bar backs and bouncers. Just as waiters will split off some of their take with the kitchen.

        As former kitchen staff allow me to laugh sarcasticly for an annoying amount of time at this comment.

            Nah they were just bitching about me making the absolutely grand minimum wage of $8/hr when they had the technically legal waiter’s wage of $2.something/hr even though their actual take home pay at the end of the night had extra zeros on what I was making. Motherfuckers.

          If you aren’t getting some of the wait staff’s tips, you need to find a new kitchen.

            Or you could find out that shoveling snow the next state over pays twice what any job you can get in your hometown does.
