1 year agoYes. The manager will just repeat what they’re told to say. Ask a waiter if they’re actually being payed significantly more since the fee was added.
If they have started charging this service fee customers will be less inclined to tip on top. So if the money from the service fee is not entirely being used to increase staff wages, then the restaurant management is effectively stealing their tips. That is wage theft in spirit if not legal definition.
