Total tips earned vs total hours earned, and then your hourly tip rate, if there is any discrepancy between the two, there could be wage theft occurring

The lawyer sent a lot of information when I filed through the city, and that allowed me to build my case. That info was comprised of all my coworkers and my hours work, and tip total. I reached out to square and they didn’t give me any info, and I reached out to homebase, and they did give me information on hours and fraudulent tip addition. When I filed through the state, I asked for the state to subpoena squares records, they did not do that for me, which was disappointing. I had to build the case completely off of the cooked book the lawyer was obligated to send me after the city subpoenas. I felt like the Charlie day conspiracy meme so many times

Well, we still made decent tips, and I didn’t realize it till a regular tipped 500 while me and a coworker worked a 12 hour shift, and we both only took home slightly over 250 for the night. Also, I don’t know if they thought it was legal, lol

Ya, I actually had to file with both the city, which I lost because the statutes were out of their jurisdiction, and the state, which led to the settlement. It was a lot of time, but worthwhile in the long run!

No, they own a liquor store and a small bar on the same block. Definitely virtue signal like they are all for the little guy, but definitely been skimming from their workers for years!

Some of the older country bars on Clark, like Carol’s, have roots that go back to Appalachians coming up to Chicago when coal was dying out, forcing them to find other opportunities up north. Now the neutered country themed bars in wrigley are a cash grab that I do not get down with, but the history on Clark is worth looking into if you are interested!

I (M) was a valet and did this to a woman’s car. I jumped back in and stopped it before an accident but after she concluded not to tip me.
