How do you feel about tip pooling between FOH and BOH? Some places swear it’s the only fair system, others say it kills incentive. Where do you land?

As somebody who has always worked with at least a couple of people on a shift who do less than the bare minimum, I don’t like tip pooling at all. Why is it the same reward regardless of the work you do?

The back of the house always makes a higher hourly wage so I do r get they should get a piece of the tips. The rest industry needs to start paying a living wage and tips need to go away.

I think what needs to happen is that businesses be required to pay a living wage so that we aren't reliant on tips. Two groups of people working extremely hard should not be fighting against each other for scraps.

Tips are for the servers/bartenders. If the dishwasher assists the FOH ie ice,glasses,plates… then a few dollars would be appropriate.

Nope won’t do it I find you have slackers and myself have customer requests

So I work as an assistant manager at a restaurant for the past 9 months. I've worked in restaurants for the past 6 years science I was 16. Now I'm 22. I went to a trade school for media and film. I got a dream opportunity to work in the field making about the same or 10% more. I told myself the only reason I'd leave this company is for this type of job. Should I take the chance at this job and leave the restaurant that is on the rise and growing?
