In the United States, most waitresses earn the minimum hourly wage plus tips, which can bring their hourly rate to $10/hour, $15/hour, or more. It also greatly depends on your attitude. No matter what a waitress should always be nice and sweet. This can improve your hourly wage from $10 to $20 or more.
For example, assume a waitress in Florida makes $5.03 per hour. In one week, she works 40 hours and earns $80 in tips, bringing her total pay for the week to $281.20. When her total pay is divided by the number of hours she worked, her hourly rate only amounts to $7.03 â well below the Florida minimum wage of $8.05. Therefore, her employer is responsible for paying her a âminimum wage makeupâ of $40.80 on her paycheck; however, when she receives her paycheck, her employer did not pay her the additional âminimum wage makeup.â
