Working at Game Stop

[the7k]

Game Stop pays like shit and that pretty much means don't work there. If you want to work this summer and you have no skills go to restaurant and apply as a waiter. Depending on where you work and how good you are you could be making more money than you know what to do with.

Just make damn sure before you go to work at a restaurant, you ask if you have to share tips. I'm dead serious - if they say you do have to share tips: walk out the fucking door. Don't say a word, just walk out.

I worked as a waiter at a restaurant for a long while, and bent over backwards for customers. I tried my damnedest to get tips, and I got tips - but then I'd have to split those tips with 5 other people WHO DID NOT GIVE A DAMN. They treated their customers like shit, and as a result, If I earned $60, I had to split it six ways. If they earned any tips, it was just a couple of quarters that came from customers that didn't want to wait for their change.

I will never work for a restaurant that shares tips again, and I encourage everyone else to do the same. You'll always be the one hard worker among a sea of slackers who leech off of your hard work.

Good for you, man! Sharing tips sounds like the communist model. I remember in college working the cafe portion (cappuccinos, espressos, canolis, etc) of a pizza shop as a waiter. I remember easily making $40-60 in tips when the average person would get less than $20. It's not really that hard to pay attention to your customers and dramatically increase the amount of tips you earn.

That's why socialism doesn't work; it's just the tip sharing model on a much larger scale. A few will work hard, and lazy bums will take their cut without doing hardly anything for it.
