How coe no one questions why the wage structure is so low ? What we have to understand that the business has palmed the responsibility of a decent wage on us thru a guilt trip !

Look at the cruise industry...they pay very low, transfer the wages on to us ( $ 10 PP , pe night) "you may adjust UP or down! This way the PP cruise chrages are lowered by a minimum of $ 280 for a cabin on a seven day cruise.

Contrast this with a couple of premium cruise lines where gratuity is included in the price.

BTW I cannot see any good waitstaff at a premium restaurant accepting the below minimum wage !
