Is it illegal for an owner to participate in tips? -

A friend of mine owns a small coffee store. She works right along side with an employee. Sometimes she will only take a small proportion of the tips. There are never any complaints with whatever staff person happens to be working with her for that day. At the end of the day both share with whatever tips there are. The employee usually figures it out. Someone said that was illegal for an employer to share in the tips. We are talking $10-20 each.. Any experience with this? .

http://articles.latimes.com/2009/jun/03/��The notion that it is wrong comes from the Starbucks Class Action Lawsuit. The Baristas had to share their tips with their shift supervisors... and this lawsuit has been going on for years.Just recently it has been reversed again.To be very honest.... an owner should have the moral obligation to either stay out of the tip jar or give their employees a living wage that doesn t require them to depend on tips as an income.If that employee makes minimum wage or little above.... the tips are hers. Because frankly dear.... the owner makes enough on the profits.

No. It is illegal to pay less than the state minimum wage.Many employees and employers believe it to be unfair for the owner of the business, who receives all the profits of the business, to also share in tips. It can be a disincentive for employees who have to share their tips with the owners.

I don t know about the legality of the owner taking a portion of tips meant for employees; I do however think it is unethical.How can an employee respect an employer who gives the impressin of being either needy or greedy enough to take tips?.

dude tips r 4 the buisness and u r an intrigal part of the buisness. it isnt illegal. who is the moron who told u that?

it s not illegal but it is a moral thing she should not take any tips from her employees

Want to write a thank you note to former boss for letting me be part of his business. After been layoff. Help!? -

Does not answer your question specifically, but...Recommend you go to Borders and see if they have in the Clearance section a book called How to Say It collection. It was about $10, and covers EVERY letter writing situation you will ever need, business AND personal, complaints, thank you, get well, and more. Well worth the $10 and it s available as reference forever. ---Kasey C, PC guru since Apple II daysBorg Burgers: Have it our way. Yours is irrelevant.

Im going to make an online store selling clothes and stuff but i need help? -

If you re not making your own clothes or doing this for a long period of time, I would simply just sell them on eBay.It s a lot quicker and less of a hassle to use a more automated service; besides, if you re not doing this for very long, you ll have better luck with people actually seeing your clothes on eBay than if you uploaded them to a personal website.eBay will have its own order form and simplifies the use of credit cards and Paypal, so you really don t have to do that much when it comes to payments.eBay also has shipping calculators where you can weigh the item and pick a shipping method.

One of the easiest to use ecommerce software.Drag drop store design, 46 ready template, optimized by SEO experts, online HTML/CSS Editor, W3C compliant themes just to name a few features.Try it FREE for 15 days and see for yourself.

Selling your own clothes...isn t worth trying to make your own site over. Besides, if you don t have the knowledge to make your own website, then you wouldn t make any profit having someone else make a website for you. Besides, even if you knew how, I m not sure if the time would be worth it unless you re going to get a supplier and make an actual clothing store. If you re just looking to sell your house hold clothes and whatnot, do eBay, or sell on Craig s List. eBay will supply all the ordering forms and whatnot for the customers, but they also charge some fees depending on how many pictures you put up, etc. Craig s List just lets you meet people around your area that want to buy your item, and then you have to take it from there, and meet up with them to make the sale. That s what I recommend...good luck, hope this helps.
