The mexican resteraunt chain has anyone worked for them recently or has any friends/family etc who do?
Ive been asked to go for a job interview with them but this has put me off.

My sisters ex did, he was manager of one. But left not so long ago due to policy changes like this one. He doesn't talk highly of the place.

That's a 2 year old article, IIRC the loophole they're talking about was closed

Top notch, was gutted when my sisters fella quit. He used to sort us out big time. 4 of us racked up a £125 bill once and he came out with a receipt for £0. Crazy bastard.

I just realised I said cream pie.... and didn't think of it in a sexual way.
Something is wrong

Problem is im on £6.40 now and dont really want to go and work for minimum wage if your not allowed to keep tips as im gona be no better off. Also if i bring this up in an interview they can allways lie and say yea you can keep the tips even if this is not the case.
