my NT brethrens, men and women, i just got off work. its 12:24 and i came in at 1 o clock, thats not even a full day hours are 10-11. i'm a server at a asian restaurant and i dont get paid salary, i have to depend on tips so each day could be different. today i left with 58 dollars. would you work here? btw i noticed all my coworkers are hispanics, not trying to be racist but im thinking they have no choice but to work there 13-14 hours a day...need input, NT knows all.

You don't get paid an hourly wage on top of tips?

Where I live the waiters usually get $4.90 an hour plus any tips

Agreed.

Dealing with people for more than 5 hours, running around and serving them their food and probably getting a few complaints is not something I would look forward to dealing with. Takes a lot of patience that I, unfortunately, don't have after about 1 hour of being socially active.

So you made $58 for 11 1/2 hours work? Find another job.
