That's your experience.
I have worked in very reputable places and none of that tip would reach the cooks. If we were lucky they would pay us a beer at the club later. I think it's regional though. I know in Quebec waiters won't share because the government assume they get 15% tip from everything bill and taxes them accordingly.
Doesn't sound very reputable. Sounds like a Buffalo Wild Wings.
I've been in the restaurant industry for over 15 years and the least I ever had to tip out to the kitchen was 2.5%. Never, did they not get tipped out.
Also, I'm not complaining, I love the back of house, but don't spread bullshit cause you had a bad go
I have worked at a Michelin one star and a two star and neither tipped the kitchen.
Your experiences sound great but they are not the norm that I experienced.
Tips are imputed and taxed from sales in the US too.
That sucks. I did work at one place where the percentages weren't set and it made for some friction because not every server tipped out BOH/ support at the same rate. The best places I worked set minimum percentages (ie, 5% to kitchen, 3% to dishwashers, etc which ended up being 15% of your sales) and got could go above if you wanted such as if the kitchen saved your ass. It made for better morale. I worked at a couple places where it was a free for all and BOH/FOH were always fighting and turnover was high
