I’ve worked in “family entertainment” restaurants for my entire life (welll the last 5 years) I’m talking about bowling alley/restaurant and arcade/restaurant settings. As a waitress, the money SUCKED. Large groups would come in and you’d bust your ass, they’d have a $300 bill and leave you $5... well I had enough of making $100 a day on 10/12 hr shifts. I applied to be a waitress at a fine dining restaurant and had my interview today and I got the job 😭 My boss was telling me that 15% is automatically put into the bill for the servers and not many people look over the bill well enough to realize it, so 90% of the time you’ll also get tipped plenty extra. He said his servers work 3-11pm and none of them leave with less than $300 after tip out to the buss boys. I am so proud of myself for how the interview went and I can’t wait to bust my ass to show everyone how thankful I am for this job 🙏🏻 You guys! The sun is finally shining through on my financial troubles. I am feeling so blessed! Tomorrow-paperwork, tuesday- first official day. I’m so excited to quit my horrible other job 😃
