Re: I understand now!

I can answer that I paid all taxes on every single dollar of income. And that's the only question that you won't answer. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Be careful, they are getting more aggressive about going after tax cheats like yourself #59. [/ QUOTE ] Think what you want, dude. I really didn't give you enough information to prove or disprove your assumption. And that's how it's going to stay. |

Re: Got stiffed on a tip tonight
My only problem with tipping is that it's based on percentage, not amount served/work done. Why should you have to tip more because the prices were higher? It doesn't take any more work for the server if the bill is $300 instead of $30.

We can be talking about a 30 dollar bottle of wine and a 300 dollar bottle of win. But usually a higher bill means that the server did more work. |

[ QUOTE ] Well, you basically shared too much information when you said you make 18%-20% in tips. If you don't claim (IRS) 18%-20%, then you are cheating on your taxes. This has nothing to do with how much money you make. [/ QUOTE ] Who said I don't declare 18-20%? I sure didn't. It is none of your business what I declare as tips at the end of the night. There, now drop it. This was not the original intent of this thread to begin with. [/ QUOTE ] I was just asking whether or not you paid taxes on all your tips. I have been a partner in a bar and know hundreds of servers/bartenders. Not a single one of them has ever paid taxes on all their income. In fact, I have never even heard of anyone even considering doing that. I assume you are the same. So, you are cheating all of the rest of us citizens who pay all our taxes. That's relevant in this thread, since you're bitching about getting stiffed. If you are indeed the one server who pays taxes on all his tips, please let me know and I will apologize for my insinuation. |

I mean, he doesn't mind telling everyone his hourly is $2.13 and he earns a paycheck of less than $300 a month, or that he makes 18%-20% in tips; however, once asked if he claims the 20%, well... that's too personal. This stuff is great. |

Re: I understand now!
Is it standard in all states that serving positions get paid below min. wage since they get tips??? Never heard of this before and it sounds horrible.
