It's actually quite straight forward and the good thing is that the wait staff are motivated to provide more than the bare minimum level of service.
OR, pay them a good wage and they will be motivated to work hard in any event to keep nice earning job.The Moose said:
Ironically would work out more expensive for the consumer.
Also, if people know they are going to get paid anyway, they are more likely to offer a lower level of service.
So what happens when you provide great service for the day and you happen to serve table after table of people who cannot afford a decent tip or are simply just too tight? Bad luck?Also, if people know they are going to get paid anyway, they are more likely to offer a lower level of service.
On the second point, that can be sorted out with decent training and good management.
There's a balance required, sadly the whole concept of balance and fairness seems lost on a lot of people today as the gap between the rich and poor increases.
