Planning on hiring a bartender for an event for $700 for 5 hours with 75+ guests. They mentioned that it is encouraged to let guests know to tip bartenders, which I thought was tacky to even mention. I assume that people will be tipping regardless so I didn’t think the comment was necessary. Am I overreacting lol?

I encourage you PROHIBIT tipping and advise the bartender to NOT put out a tip container.

You are hosting a party and guests should not feel compelled to tip. They are your guests.

If a tip is appropriate, then you should tip the bartender after the event.

If I was host, I would be livid if the bartender asked or encouraged my guests to tip.

I would privately tip the bartender at the end of the night. Similar to how you tip the band after the wedding reception.

Is this an individual or company that you hired? $140/hr seems generous enough with it without tip seems generous enough to me. 🤔

She’s being paid more than enough. She can bring and put out her own tip jar if she wants, but expecting you to announce it is ridiculous.

They’re not supplying the liquor and beer, right? Literally serving and making the cocktails? Anything from their end that would be a cost to operate? Otherwise, that’s a nice payment for a relatively cushy job, I’d be disappointed with them, especially if they have a second set of hands to assist.

Right, I still would have to supply the drinks. She provides servicing and some garnishes and disposable cups lol

I have been at my company for 3.5 years. One year ago (2.5 years into my employment with them) they re-leveled everyone and I was bumped to an entry level position on the terms that they changed my job title when they re-leveled, so “technically” I am at the early stages of my new title. Even though the job duties did not really change.
I’m not sure the best way to approach this. Has anyone else had a similar experience or know how I should advocate for myself?

I have a FT role currently that I would be skeptical about leaving for contract work, but I know that contract work tends to pay a little more so just wanted to see if it's enough to consider.
