In US restaurants, do cooks receive tips like the waiters ? Is there a sharing between waiters and cooks ?

    Some wait staff tip out the kitchen with some percentage of tips, but cooks are generally paid the non-tipped minimum wage. Some places try to forbid these agreements and I think they may be illegal in some places.

    I also got tipped out working as a bar back/security/whateverElseNotBartending in bars.

    AFAIK WAS state passed a law that unless the cooks were front facing (aka in front of guests) tips could not be split with them.

    Law may have changes as this was 2010 or so
