Shortly before opening, Casa Bonita’s new owners Matt Stone and Trey Parker decided to eliminate tipping and instead pay workers a flat wage of $30 per hour.

Now I could be wrong, but getting a an hourly wage as a restaurant worker is FAR better than relying on tips. I feel like either workers in this situation are too obsessed with tips or there’s huge context missing.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but if you live in the US you must pay income tax and report on all tips or you are doing tax evasion. If you are photoshopping pay stubs you already know this to be true (don’t do this the employer sends a copy to the IRS you will go to jail)

    Most restaurants don't report their tips either, it's good to find out at a new place whether you can cheat or not
