I was always under the impression that Lenbert worked for tips, and think that's been said here before as well. I feel like I've read it said specifically that Lenbert is only paid in the tips he receives and doesn't receive kickbacks!

If he's getting kickbacks at every bar, why are we "encouraged" to tip him $10 or more per person? Seems to me it should be one or the other, not both. Thinking of all the people he packs on that bus three times a week, if everyone is handing him $10 AND he's getting kickbacks, he's doing very well for himself on a part time schedule, all cash, presumably completely tax free.

When we were last there (more than a year ago) we were on the tour and were charged $5 or $6 at Belladonnas for Red Stripes, and a big deal was made by others here on the board... it's not the first time price gouging on the tour has come up here, and probably won't be the last.
