This is how it always should be. There is no good reason for employers to pay less if someone makes tips. It is stealing...whatever the law says.

When I started learning about 7i it blew my mind being from the West Coast. Incredibly horrific piece of law.

Yeah we had this in the UK for a time when minimum wage was introduced. Up until about 2008-2009 when it was finally changed so that employees had to have minimum wage regardless of tips the hospitality industry didn't collapse despite the noise made in the right wing press.

However we now have issues with employers stealing tips from employees via various dodgy practices. The law is likely to change again here to protect tips too.

Chicago are making a step in the right direction but employees will still lose out of tips aren't protected too

I (almost) always tip in cash. I hope this lowers the chance that an employer can intercept it.

They should have raised their wages more and done away with tipping though
