yes

Not in Norway, boop.
All they get is ****, lol.

Pretty much, depending on the day. It's more paying than the actual paycheck sometimes.

Does make bank just mean make money?

well of course they do! Thats where the real meat is.

Depends on the night and restaurant.

I had friends who would get $100 some nights at Sonic

It depends where they work. My friend works as a cocktail waitress at Moxie's and they make over $300 in tips at night the end of the night. But then again, like most restaurants, they have to tip out a percentage to the people who work at the back, the hostess, etc.

It depends on the restaurant and even then is wildly inconsistent.

Wow. I'd live with that. Even if I have to give out a percentage to the kitchen

Does real meat just mean money?

Tips> minimal wage

Also, I was talking about this with a waitress the other day. I asked my friend how did she like working at a restaurant, and she said the pros and cons were:

Pros:

• Tips
• Sometimes you get to leave home really early

Cons:

• You only get the "big tips" when you work at night time - no time to go out since they close late on weekends
• If you work at lunch time, 90% chance of the time they send you home thirty minutes within your shift because it's dead
• Leaving home too early (for some people)
• The minimum wage is less since you make tips
• Tipping out (mandatory)

So, when I was at the restaurant I was talking to the waitress. I asked her how she liked it, because I'm considering working there, and I asked if she could confirm if everything my friend said is true. She said yep. She said most of the time when she comes to work at lunch time, they send her home within thirty minutes because it's dead, no point being overstaff. I would be PISSED if they sent me home after working thirty minutes, because me getting up, getting ready, commuting takes longer than that.
