Interesting to read about the service charge, makes me not a fan of them because it creates inconsistencies in pay among servers depending on how many overall employees there are.Originally Posted by Bnewb
I get that restaurants need revenue, need to pay their employees, and have overhead; but at the end of the day the margins they have on food/drinks should reflect all of the overhead.
The final bill should be transparent instead of leaving room for interpretation on how much "extra" we need to leave to pay the employees.
There's stimulating the economy by eating out(good) and then there's paying too much for a given service.
