Your fired! Get outta here

No you didn’t. I said, my company pays more than the minimum wage and you were on about, your company doesn’t pay above the minimum wage and you blame sweet Trump?!? You quoted my post that said that and then said the opposite.

So, nah.

Here it is again.

This maybe state-based. As late as October, last year, this was not a requirement I had to enforce.

Yes I get that any blasphemy against sweet Trump gets your blood boiling. Doesn’t change the fact you responded to a different post with the exact opposite of what I said, as an accusation no less.

What changed? It was common practice not to report cash tips back when I was in the business. If they are reporting all their tips and still can’t meet the hundred dollar UE threshold, I have to wonder why they still have or want the job. Let me guess, they are taxed on total sales at oh a ten percent tip rate assumption?

At any rate, good article on it here, bottom line, states can remedy this.

The Upshot

States have a monumental task ahead of them to reconfigure systems to disburse the $300 extra unemployment benefit provided by Trump’s Lost Wages Assistance directive. It behooves them to think inclusively and ensure that as many unemployed workers as possible qualify for the financial lifeline. This includes following New Hampshire’s lead to true up benefits for anyone receiving less than $100 a week in unemployment insurance. It also includes following Louisiana’s lead and proactively reaching out to workers to refile their claim and self-certify that they are unemployed, at least partially, due to Covid-19.

Oh and nobody would be getting the extra 300-400 except for Trump.

Debit cards.

You had a lot of crew that reported all their tips in anticipation of qualifying for an EO’s plague-year enhancement to unemoyment insurance?

I had to explain to someone not so long ago why wait staff would cozy to a cash-only creep.

It’s not blasphemy. It’s your TDS. You blame Trump for your employees not meeting a $100 a week threshold on a wage your company sets.

I would be ashamed to work for a company who wouldn’t pay their employees minimum wage.

Ashamed.

No, I have little sympathy for tax cheats who now want to whine their cheating cost them down the road.

Nothing says ‘tax cheat’ like a nineteen year old slinging drinks for book money.

How exactly does Donald Trump come into this thread? I thought it was about a crappy waitress rightfully getting canned.

Each state has its own minimum wage, & qualifications and ineligibility for Unemployment Insurance are on a state level.

What disqualifies one from UE in one state, at least without appeal of the denial, may not in another.

The minimum wage in Pennsylvania is $7.25, as is the federal.

That’s why I pay cash. And honestly it’s hurt the industry, it so much harder to turn a bar or club into a money laundry you don’t get all those joints where everything is great because the real owners don’t care if it turns a profit and like to hang out there.

Not for tipped employees.
Its $2.83
You can look it up.

Dude you should really go back and read the post I’m talking about it or even the one where I repeated specifically what I said before you embarrass yourself further with this “shame shame” routine.

Not gonna make a difference.

I was unaware people under 25 were exempt from taxes.

Some people would call that demagogism, but when minimum wage fast food employees do stupid stuff, what else can we call it except the fall of our society.
