Washington is one of 7 states who do not allow lower wages for tipped workers. I went to the trouble of googling it for you. Crazy how I'm right about the state I grew up in and currently live in.
Why wouldn't have I believed what the lady said she earned. She was relating her experience. You are just some guy posting on a message broad. Why would I grant you more credibility?

La Place Mike is everything that's wrong with this board. He doesn't actually read what is being written.
I read the article.

I read what you wrote. Again why should I have believed you? You weren't there for the interview. You don't know the lady being interviewed. Should I believe you because you call yourself YipSkiddlyDooo?

Just clings on to some arbitrary point and argues it not only for the sake or arguing, but also without any intimate background knowledge of the subject matter.
I didn't cling to an arbitrary point. I was taking the waitress being interviewed for her word and going by the intimate knowledge that I have from waiting tables in the past. So, please forgive me. I expected the women to be intimately more knowledgeable about how much she earned than the estimable YipSkiddlyDoo.

Still trying to argue. Has to be right. Point proven.

The simple fact is that the lady was either not telling the truth or was being screwed by her employer in relation to the law.

I personally thought something was amiss with her statement because I believed it was around 8.50 an hour but this was info from a few years ago and Wash. adjusts for inflation annually.

As to the article.. I believe the consequences because they make sense and it didn't even touch on probable long term job loss.
