Provide proof that bartenders in DC and FL are making $100,000. I don't believe it.

Show us the money.

I really don't care if you believe me or not. It's the truth. I don't have to prove anything. It's just a fact if you go to high end restaurants. And btw, Florida has many.

If that's true you could prove it.

Its not true so you cant.

I live in central FL. There are no bartenders making 100K no matter how high end the restaurant or bar.

That is just crazy.

Again, show the proof.

Then you go to dive bars and restaurants. I'm talking about high end. What do you consider a high end restaurant you go to. I'm really tired of this back and forth with you. I know many who make that kind of money. End of story. Have you ever been to a Palm restaurant. We were sitting at the bar and a patron gave the bartender $100 tip for 4.

Go to bar tending school, then apply to a reputable restaurant and work your way up to the finest. You will be making that amount in due time. But you have to be personable and friendly. You can also be a waitress and make as much. It's just common sense. I already gave you an example. What else can I do for you.

Immigrates work for less money. Get a clue.
Where should the ad have been placed?

The NYT? Front page?

You might want to read the ad.

It wasn't calling for bartenders.

Gotta carry 25 lbs and take orders, set tables, clear tables, run food orders.

Not exactly brain surgery.

This is why people who are paid to perform these types of menial jobs, are paid what they are.

Doesn't matter if it's the only job you can get can get b/c you have 10 kids you can't afford.

That's your problem.

Oh. And here I thought conservatives thought highly of letting market mechanisms settle such matters. If nobody wants the job at the offered compensation, an actual job market would react by either letting the job go unfilled or increasing the compensation.

No, that would just be you. There is no need to "prove" something obvious.
