Review from Finance Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

My management, the pay, the guests

pay your servers livibale wages. i cant afford shit on 2.13

Because being a bowl attendant for $12 in a world like this just isnt logical. Not comparing to what you guys make in profit to here, but I think it would make the environment less over-competetive if everyone was making their money. And waiters base pay should be at what the old minimum wage, $7.25
