40. What you should understand before you accept this job:

Many people over the years have said Stoby's was one of their favorite jobs. One reason for this is our managers work hard to create a positive and enjoyable working environment. Before you accept this job, it is important you understand the following will be expected of you:

1-You are expected to use good manners. Please. Thank you. Excuse me. It is so much more enjoyable to work with people who have good manners. Therefore, you are expected to be polite while working at Stoby’s.


2-You are expected to demonstrate the attitude of a team player (an attitude of cooperation and helpfulness). When everyone pulls their own weight and "looks hard" for ways to help out their co-workers work is spread out over many people, things go smoothly and work becomes fun. Teamwork is the difference between a good place to work and a great place to work.

3-You are expected to get along with others and to conduct yourself in the most cordial, courteous and friendly manner possible. If you should have a problem with a coworker, go to your manager and ask for help. We are anxious to help you solve any problem you want solved. If you are not interested in solving problems, but only creating problems, we do not need you in this organization. If this sounds worded a little strong, it is because we believe that getting along with others is a choice everyone is capable of making. The question is whether you are willing to make that choice. When someone chooses not to get along with others, it makes life miserable for everyone. When that happens all our hard work to make Stoby's an enjoyable place to work goes down the drain. :(


4-We expect you to maintain a positive attitude. If you are frustrated about something - talk to your manager. He or she will try to solve the problem or else find someone who can. Complaining and saying negative things to other employees (or just a generally negative attitude) will put your job in jeopardy.


5-We expect you to refrain from using profanity and offensive language. Your speech affects those around you. Some people are very offended by profanity and coarse conversation. Although an occasional expletive is understandable, the constant use of profanities will not be tolerated. If you are unwilling to control your language do not take this job.

I have read the above and if I am hired I commit to:

1) Use good manners and be polite to my co-workers

2)"Look hard" for ways to help my co-workers

3) Get along with my co-workers

4) Maintain a positive attitude

5) Refrain from using profanity and offensive language

41. I authorize the investigation of all information I have provided in this online application.

42. I understand that being a "No/Call NO/Show" is grounds for immediate termination. I understand that this means that if I must miss work for any reason I am required to call ahead of time and speak to the MANAGER on duty and explain why I am unable to come to work.

43. Notice to Tipped Employees

The amount of cash wage to be paid to you per hour will be $2.63

Assuming you receive a sufficient amount of tips to cover the tip credit the amount of tips per hour to be credited as wages will be $4.62

You have the right to retain all the tips you receive.

The tip credit shall not apply unless you have been informed of these requirements.

You are being provided this information in accordance with Section 203(m) of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Please check "I understand" below or "I have questions"

Another way of saying this:
You are GUARANTEED to earn at least 7.25 per hour.
So, if you make zero tips . . . we will pay you 7.25 per hour.
But you will never be paid less than 2.63 per hr even if you make $1000 per shift.

A Manager will be more than happy to explain this to you in person.

44. To Servers:

At Stoby's you report tips as part of the clocking out process.

If you forget to clock out we have no record of your tips.

If you forget to clock out you must CALL back to report tips.

If you fail to clock out and fail to call we will estimate your tips based on your credit card tip percentages. This percentage typically averages 20% of your credit card sales.

45. I understand that misrepresentation or omission of facts called for is cause for dismissal. Further, I understand and agree that my employment is for no definite period and may, regardless of the date of payment of my wages and salary, be terminated at any time without any previous notice.
