well in germany they live off of the tips people leave them

I reckon,... £4.00 or so.. is a reasonable estimate here, but tips are amazing in waitressing

i started at about $8.50 (canadian) and on a good night (i work in a bar) i can walk away with anywhere from $50-$ 190 depending on how busy the night is and how many other girls are working

my friend buses for 15 hours a week, get paud around 300 every paycheck and gets about 60-70 of tips every two weeks - but keep in mind she doesn;t work weekends, and she only buses.

From what I hear,I think they get min. wage plus tips.

i get min wage, actually i just got off work at my watressing job, and i made about $120 tonight, which is pretty average for me

I think most waitressing jobs are minimum wage, but yeah depending on how busy quite a bit more than that in tips...

i dunno probably not much though. they will probably rely on the tips

it all depends on the place you work. I use to work in an little cafe, i only made enough in tips and all that to pay my rent and the bills, it also depends on which collage you go to, and all that. but it wouldnt be easy to make it with just a waitressing job.
