I worked in a sitdown pizza chain many years ago where some of the managers would work shifts as servers because they made more money that way.

I got fired from Sequoia on the Georgetown Waterfront, when they wanted to keep me in indefinite training, so as to keep from having to pay me tips. They told me training would be between five and seven days. On day 10 I complained and was fired. This was for bar backing. And I was the only one who spoke native English and wasn't from south of the border. I later found out all those others had been in training for over a month.
