[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 572357, member: 1233"] Min wage is much lower if you are in a service position where you are tipped. Min wage for waitresses, etc... is $2.13 per hour but wages plus tips should equal min wage. It is incredibly hard for a waitress/server to show that her wages and tips combined are under min wage and get compensated for the difference. I worked in a chain restaurant and some of our servers made less, but corporate flat out refused to make up the difference. Corp claimed that they were under reporting tips to scam them, and had more lawyers. As for online job apps, if you see an ad for the job, or even the listing of the position online at the co's website, take note of the words they use to describe the job and the qualities they want. Use those descriptive words and also use active verbs rather than passive ones. Often the computer is set up to look for certain words when it processes the applicaton. It will pull out those with those words and ignore the rest. I hope you get the job you want, and that you are very happy doing that jogl [/QUOTE]
