My bill is 165 dollars and you can't afford to pay your staff more than server minimum wage? Listen here, fuck nuts...
Also, while we are at it, I used to be a server when I was a teenager 20 years ago. Minimum expectation for a tip was 10%, 15% was standard and 20% was for particularly good service. Since fucking when has 25% become the minimum expectation or even a high end expectation? That is on top of already increased food costs from inflation. Even the low end of the presets you see on all of the card readers asking for tips is 18% most of the time. What gives?
Oh it's ridiculous. I long to return to 15%, but I won't budge a penny over 20%. I'll hold up the bar with a calculator if you make me, I've done it before.
At least where I live sales tax is about .08% so you can just double that
