Unlike waiters, cookers do actually get paid.

waiters make above minmum wage and get tips in my state they make way more than cooks.

[Anonymous No.10757866]

Waiters in Atlanta get $2.13/hr + tips. Cooks get $12/hr.

Living in liberal hellscape Seattle. Listen to this
>be waiter
>Make $12/hour plus tips
>head line cook makes 15~/hour
>has culinary degree and passion for cooking
>years of hard work in the industry
>dish washer who gets high and listens to music all day gets the same
>we can't afford to pay the chef more
>we legally can't pay the dishwasher less

A few places have a tip jar for cooks.

>dishwashers arent important because they dont have a degree

kind of elitist dont you think

[Anonymous No.10757946]

They have the luxury of not having to be nice to people. Plus their occupation has a lot of room for growth (line cook to lead cook to sous chef to head chef)

[Anonymous No.10757967]

>>10757944
Not at all. Dishwashing just requires hustle and stamina. Cooking requires that, and knowledge of how to cook. It is empirically more difficult to cook.

[Anonymous No.10757976]

>>10757892
maybe you should give some of your tips to the chef you greedy asshole

[Anonymous No.10758008]

>>10757976
We do. My state just allowed a kitchen tip out to be mandatory and our owner is also our chef, so he does 2.5% of our sales to the back of house

[Anonymous No.10758017]

>>10757967
This. I was a dishbitch for a while, it's not something someone who gets easily stressed could do but it's not exactly hard. Do most places really pay the dishwasher like shit? I got paid very well for what I was doing.

So do waiters if they don't make enough via tips, which almost never happens especially if you're an attractive woman. Waiters, on average, will take home more than the cooks, which is bullshit since their job pales to what the cooks have to do.

why dont you nonces ask ya manager for higher pay then. not my fault you're too retarded to ask for a higher living standard

.t un garcon

[Anonymous No.10758060]

>>10758034
sadly, I think part of this is because servers have to be presentable (less so for cheap places of course, but still a lot of cheap places have a 6/10 girl out front and scary looking mexicans in back)

For low level employees, how you look is more important than the difficulty of your job.

[Anonymous No.10758358]

More importantly, why do I need to tip the waiter more if my meal was more expensive?

It takes the same amount of skill to bring a $30 steak or a $75 steak to me. Why the fuck should I tip the waiter more for the $75 steak?

A $100k Mercedes tears up the roads no worse than a $20k Honda. So why should one have to pay more road tax than the other?

Absolutely horrible comparison. I hope you aren't in any positions of power

cooks always take home less than waiters and cooks also usually get tipped. I worked as a waiter for many years and the cooks who really do the bulk of the work make less.

If youre a cook a upset by this, go bus tables. Youll work less and get paid more.

"Road tax" don't real you moron.

>and cooks also usually get tipped
that's how it should be, but it ain't. the front of the house might combine tips and split them, but won't include the people who do actual work, who don't just remember to carry a drink

[Anonymous No.10759402]

>>10757802
Depends on where you work, at my work we tip out our cooks a very small percentage of the restaurants total sales for the evening from the waiters tip pool

Send all the drug addict, tattooed, illegal immigrant boh cooks out to take people's orders if they want tips.

[Anonymous No.10759499]

>>10757802
Depends I know a lot of places that split something like 3% of all tips to the cooks + cooks get free meal before and after work

[Anonymous No.10759688]

>>10757802
When I lived in Canada I'd never tip unless the restaurant split tips with the cooks.
Servers don't really do much.

Not him but it doesnt work that way in the food business m8

1. You get blacklisted

This is not true, places are desperate for cooks

[Anonymous No.10759789]

>>10757802
Do cooks not get tipped? I only worked in hospitality briefly, but the place I was at pooled tips and nearly everyone got part. Waitstaff got the largest share, for sure, but bar, cooks, bus all got some tip pool money as well.

And then their boss finds some horseshit reason to fire them because corporate doesn't like they're having to pay out of pocket for them.

If you change literally every six months sure, people will be skeptical, but nothing says you can't look around. If people ask why be fucking honest. Too many people just get antsy and nervous about shit then it shows when in an interview
