Waking up at 1:30am to Deliver Newspapers

in life •  8 years ago 

Interesting. I was at the grocery store yesterday and a guy from our local paper couldn't even give away copies for free.

Curious...through what mechanism was the employer able to take $0.10 of every tip from you? Were you just honest and reported all the tips you received? And why were they able to get that money in the first place? The whole purpose of a tip is to give extra money to the person performing the service.

Some of the papers I delivered allowed the subscribers to add a tip on top of their subscription fee. When they do it through the system like that, it gets added to my paycheck. Then the 10 cents gets deducted from that.

Other times, people would be up super early and hand me cash as a tip, which was awesome!
