Legal Question in Employment Law in Texas

waitress pay

I work at a restaurant and was told I would received $2.13 per hour plus tips. I have worked there 2 months and was told I will not be receiving a check because I made too much money in tips. Is this true or am I being cheated.

Re: waitress pay

Based on what you have stated, it appears that your employer is not treating you correctly. If you were told that your compensation would be $2.13 per hour plus tips, then your employer should be paying you that agreed upon amount. You will need to look at any employee handbook (if applicable) to see if there is anything that might be in opposition to what you were told. If my law firm can assist you with this legal matter or any other legal issue, please contact my legal assistant Jennifer ([email protected]).
