I don't want to turn this into a minimum wage debate, but the idea that servers should be exempt from minimum wage just seems sucky to me. Minimum wage in Oz means exactly that - we *pay* the minimum wage for serving staff already, so the x% tipping really doesn't happen here. Tipping is a bonus, but is not expected at all.
If we have bad service, we vote with our feet....by never coming back!
So, instead of charging $5 for something and expecting the customer to pay $7, we just get charged $7.
I've never worked in either food or retail and really don't have any interest on doing so.
