  1. I thought restaurants were already making wait staff tip down. Waiters hate it think they are entitled to the whole tip while the ones doing the real work is others.

    Hell yes make it a law so the whiny fucks will have something else to bitch about

  2. This will lead to no tips at all. End of an era.

  3. Hey 7:10AM. No one wants to a serve a whiny complaining fuck like you! Here's a little secret-every time to go out to a restaurant, people are spitting and doing worse than that to your food!

  4. ^^^^^^^^STFU 7:10 makes a good point you make a whole lot of nothing. Hell, you're so stupid you can't even write a decent sentence.

  5. ^^^@7:10 makes NO point. Just another bitch bitching. I agree with 8:04AM. Complaining bastards like the both of you always get the "special" treatment at restaurants. Keep running your mouth. UMMM this steak is really delicious!

  6. Sucks about P&G, I'd say that's a pretty clear sign they're closing a line if not the whole shop.

  7. 1) In the past month I have eaten at restaurants occasionally and have been receiving the best service from the wait staff they could offer. I tip a higher percentage because I know these people (in the food industry) do work hard at a job that will never be a high paying one. I wish there was a fair resolution to the problem but the higher minimum wage fight will only close places down.

    2) P&G is a sad story but the untold story is that this location in KCK has been soap central with P&G, Colgate Palmolive and others in facilities at this intersection. P&G has had a policy to keep this plant modern, safe and maintained. Facility and property are always clean and an asset to KCK. Good pay too! It would be a tremendous loss if this facility is actually shuttered completely.

  8. Channel 41 completely missed the point of the proposed regulation.

    Servers would have to turn over tips to the OWNER.

    Then the owner splits it up as he/she sees fit.

    The story lead is the owner doesn't have to distribute all of the tip money. The owner can pocket any portion of the tip pool.

    Trump can write off getting any restaurant staff votes in the future.

    KSHB is a little late here. This was announced in December and the public comment period is now closed. WTF is their audience supposed to do with this outdated info now?

  9. More manufacturing job loses under Trump?

    I guess they can go to work for tips at a restaurant that forces them to give their tips to the owner.

    So much winning.

  10. Owners could steal tip money to fund their remodeling projects. Or subsidize their menu with lower prices. Tip money leading to lower menu prices means giving a kickback to customers that might not be tipping at all - a truly shit redistribution.

    "To the extent employers may otherwise make an arrangement to allocate any customer tips to make capital improvements to their establishments (e.g., enlarging the dining area to accommodate more customers), lower restaurant menu prices, provide new benefits to workers (e.g., paid time off), increase work hours, or hire additional workers, these are also potential benefits to employees and the economy overall that may result under the proposed rule."
