But I also feel that it is not the clients responsibility to make sure the waitperson gets paid. That is the responsibility of the owner of the business.


I couldn't figure out how to say this without sounding callous and uncaring. You expressed it perfectly.


The French side waiters have a decent livable minimum wage the Dutch side does not. If I am up to date I think the minimum wage is NAf 7.65 or $4.29 an hour. Want to try to live on $8900 a year on Dutch Sint Maarten?


Hi, I'll have a cheeseburger and a pepsi.
Would you like fries with that sir?
Yes, please.
20 minutes later she shows up with my cheeseburger and fries.
Is that a skill set that deserves more then minimum wage?
