I thought I read it on yahoo or at&t but can't find it. Basically, his plan is to eliminate tips and instead charge a uniform service charge to all checks. Instead of minimum wage with tips he will offer salary with benefits. The owner will be able to reward the better preforming servers rather than the customer. In theory, it makes sense if the business owner is ethical. I got the impression he cared for his employees and was motivated to do the right thing. However, this has the potential for abuse (like the couple I saw on one of Gordon Ramsey's shows who kept all the tips for themselves.)
