servers get paid mostly in tips.
But not all the tips are the servers, they have to tip out people like the busser, bartender, and food runner
It’s a teamwork thing
It could be 2% to the busser, 4% to the bar, 3% to the runner – the percent is based on different things, net sales/ bar drinks/ food ran
But what if someone doesn’t honor the tip out?
How would you go about fixing it?
Do everyone’s tip outs for them – micro managing everyone (creating another job responsibility for that tip check out-er)
That’s a way, but there’s others.
Instead of checking out 15 people, What if you spot check a few peoples tip outs per night – if you got caught not tipping out correctly you wouldn’t be able to work for the next shift or two or three.
Which would be more effective?
