How much does a waitress make in tips usually?
That’s a really tough question to answer but I’m going to go out on a limb and say you’ll make $40 on your 10 hour shift. The thing is this is your first day. You may get some “pity” tips from people or you may not. You hopefully won’t have a full section on your first day. Waitressing is good money if you like it. Give it a chance too! It’s very challenging and you have to hang in there if it gets tough. You’ll be surprised how fast you remember things and get used to things. Check out this blog for some good reading on waitressing. Good Luck to you!
