^as someone who spent 7 years working in nightclub, there is a "house" tip at most establishments that involve tips.

It usually goes to the managers.

It's real scumbag IMO. Glad I don't work in that industry anymore.

Don't believe anything the owner is saying. I know the ins and outs. Glasses get ordered by the case and come in big brown boxes shipped from china.

The tip money outright lines there pockets tax free.

ps, when I did my time as a busser, we got tipped out 1% of sales SPLIT 3 WAYS. The manager would also recieve a 1 percent tip. So if bartenders sold 30k~ we would get 100 dollars each and the manager would get 300.

which is garbage.

Bartenders would walk out with anywhere from 300-1000 a night (depending on the night) and bussers would walk out with 60-100 a night. I don't see how it's fair. Fucked up industry.
