As I was paid when I waited...and as QS is paid a low hourly rate with the opportunity to make a lot more if you turn tables faster and with a friendly demeanor to earn more.
Who is going to bear the extra costs for the new benefits the wait staff is getting? Are they forcing a change in the tip paradigm?
This restaurant is passing their extra cost to their customers, not in the form of higher menu prices to their customers.
They could have easily raised their prices by 5% and I wouldn't have even noticed.
If you think I stiffed the waiter. Would you tip 20% on top of the 5% they charged me? Then are you going to start tipping 25% to all the KC waitreresses who don't get $10/hour and health care?

I'm just guessing, but the extra 5% wasn't going to the server.
