How the fuck do people afford anything. The thing is, even if you live in a cheap place, cars and guns have a somewhat set price when they're new, which I would think makes them harder to get.
I've never had a problem affording cars or guns. -

Originally posted by Bill Krozby Minimum wage is like 6.50 in tx but if you work a job with tips minimum wage doesn't come into play.
It does if you make under minimum wage. Then your employer has to bring your pay up to that.
Also jesus christ 6.50 is low. Conservatives fucking you hard. Rent is about the same here but minimum wage is 9/h.
Still not livable.
Vote bernie Sanders and get a liveable 15/h wage. Its what he pays his employees. -

2019-09-23 at 2:18 PM UTCBack in the early '70's, minimum wage was $2.50/hr. Work eight hours, you make 20 bucks, minus taxes. So your take home pay was about $17 for the day. I worked for years at that wage just starting out. Then again, a pack of smokes was 69 cents, and you could get a bag of candy for 2 cents. Gas was 20 cents a gallon.

Nah fool I can make more money doing tips. You obviously didn't read what I posted you nugger
Plus where I'm currently working it's 11 dollars an hour plus tips. Where I'm going to day to get my old job back was 8 dollars an hour and I'd make anywhere from sixty to a hundred dollars you stupid idiot -
2019-09-23 at 2:23 PM UTCWhat they do instead is hire part time only so they don't have to pay any benefits. Then they lay a bunch of people off so you have to take on and do all the work they would have been doing. They absolutely hate paying $14/$15 hour. Drives them crazy. They're all panicking and cutting corners stupidly like crazy.

I'm talking about minimum wage you retard
If you work two 8hr shifts you should be making 105 not 80. Even at these tipping jobs your income needs to be above minimum wage by federal law. You can't legally make less (including the tips) and if you're making a measly 80 for two days you need to bring that up to your boss. -

No.
I told you in the other thread, look up the FLSA. This is a federal law which trumps TX law, not that TX probably has anything on the books to refute.
If min wage is 5/h but you make 2.50 because tips, and come out with 7/h after 1h of work, THATS OKAY. But if you make only 4.50/h your boss has to comp you the 50 cents so that you're making at least minimum wage.
Any time you make less, you need to inform your boss and they legally have to pay you up to min wage no matter which of the 50 states you're in.
You should fucking know this by now, holy shit. -
