For *tipped* employees it depends on if you're going by the Federal
minimum wage or individual states. The Federal minimum wage for tipped
employees is *still* a measly $2.13/hr. Yet in Alaska, for example, the
wage for tipped employees is $7.75/hr. In California, $8/hr. That's
higher than the Federal minimum wage for non-tipped employees.

In Arizona, where the Amy's Bakery bozos are located, the tipped wage is
$4.80/hr. You can't convince me they've been paying servers $8 -
$15/hour which is what they claim on their FB page.
