Waiters where I used to work were some of the best paid employees in the place even when including directors that were making 130k+... if they had included all their tip on their paycheck (instead of the default 10% of every bill under their name) they would have ended up getting a 0$ paycheck every two weeks and would have still owed taxes at the end of the year... and that's while making above minimum wage from the get go...

Yea I know some servers who make great money

I'm only slightly above minimum wage with no tips so, pressure to leave 15-20% tips def bugs me
