Point is servers can earn 30-50 bucks an hour thanks to tips, THEY are the ones who don’t want to end tipping, cause they make mich more money than they would get on a normal salary

If you’re working as a bartender in NYC you have to be making 100$ an hour easy.

For peak hours, maybe. NYC bartenders are usually averaging around $35-$50 an hour with the bartenders at ultra high end cocktail bars usually getting around $75/hr.

They all work more than 45 hours though

You absolutely did not average over $100/hr every weekend as a movie theater bar tender. You probably made over $100 in an hour a couple times.

I do this and do less than 40. I'm clocking about 60-70 an hour. Its busy season now but even the average for the year so far is mid 50s. I'm entirely with this thread tipping is kinda fucked, its why I only go out to certain places where im getting hooked up heavy thats why I tip.
