I know people who have worked for a place you've all heard of that was a cash only establishment. The place would take all the tips and would pool them and then cut checks to the staff weekly. They always wondered if the owner/managers were taking some of the tips because there really was no way to know for sure.



Joe Ts in Fort Worth?

That place rakes it in and it's all cash so who knows what they take in vs what they report

No this place is in the New Braunfels area and I don't know if it actually happened. Only that people worked there mentioned it to me.

Tip should be level of service, not price of meal. Realtors don't earn $600k for the sale of a $10mm house.

I say that about tipping but I still tip based on price of meal, just agree with the thought about tying it the price being dumb. And always negotiate when realtors.
RooAg,

When I started on Texags, I was going to use that handle because my last name starts with Roo but I went with my home town instead.

But if you ever need any of my passwords…7667

I always give them a stock tip or a tax tip. They will likely benefit a thousand fold over a 15% or 20% tip.
