The article mentions that kitchen staff should be making $30 as well, so yeah, if that’s not part of the owners’ offer, more power to these workers. No tipping only works if the entire staff makes that same competitive wage, which is what they should be making anyway.
Not sure what the bit about bartenders is about. They’re just disappointed because they’ll make less without tips? I don’t see how that’s healthy or sustainable for one group of the workers to have a much higher earning potential than the rest.
I really hope this can get resolved and doesn’t turn into an anecdote for keeping tipping around.
