A follow up to my last post! New York Was Wrong to Exclude Tipped Workers From Full $15 Minimum says Eater
Cuomo overlooked the state's 300,000 waiters, bidders, bartenders and other tipped workers. #foodnews #policynews

sugardetoxme 8yr Guaranteed Cuomo got pressured. If Bloomberg was in office, this would have happened already bc he didn't take answers from anyone

annefood 8yr You'll have to fill me in since I won't be there on Friday! -
PatriciaDuffy 8yr This issue is complicated and culture bending. If tipped employees' salaries are raised, restaurant owners do need to raise prices or perhaps fold; the economic model has changed. Previous pricing assumed a work force whose income was supported by tips; if that goes away, a European service-included system is needed . Perhaps least attractive to servers in high end restaurants whose tips exceed a minimum wage hike? Apologies for being a bs nerd but I ache for the restaurant owners on this topic! -
DietID_TeamDietitians 8yr thanks for your thoughts @PatriciaDuffy! I've heard this quite a bit from smaller restaurants who are barely making margins. It's definitely a conundrum to say the least.

Gwendolyn 8yr Danny Meyers' "hospitality included" policy which allows for higher prices would help. Though then you wouldn't have tipped workers to begin with!

darkchocolatepeanutbutter My idea of moderation is asking myself what have I not eaten in a while? If I haven't remembered the last time I had a soda, it's time for a soda :)
