Around here top restaurant jobs pay $150.00 tops, with many paying less.

As I'm sure is is everywhere else, private parties are all over the map. A foreign owner of a major thoroughbred farm reserves a private room at the restaurant I work most often about six times a year. He entertains 12 associates, spends around $3000.00 for wine and dinner.I'm paid by the restaurant...go in two hours early. This guy tips me $1000.00. He also gives the only waiter he'll accept $1000.00.

This is the same guy that gets the Nevelle Brothers to play parties with 50 or so people attending. He also donated millions to 9/11 relief. Man, I wish he was in the US year-round.

Most corporate jobs pay $300-500.
