So 225/2 = $112 in tips. So a $5 increase in minimum wage over 4 hours increases base income buy about $20.

So you can reduce your tip by 10% roughly if you want servers compensated at the same rate. Now it will be interesting if tip out also drops as a result which would mean a 20% reduction in tipping.

So if you tip 20% now tip 16%. If you tip 15% tip 12%
too much effort
