https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=176300 Alex Crowley contacted Alex Crowley Hi, Thank you for reaching out regarding the situation at Bub's. It's certainly concerning. While the City doesn't have jurisdiction over this particular situation, I am dismayed to learn that this practice is going on there. I am also dismayed that people would dine-and-dash like that, leaving the server in that predicament. FYI, I found the following summary of the legal implications of the situation you describe, which I found helpful: https://www.consumerreports.org/consumerist/after-a-dine-and-dash-is-it-legal-for-a-restaurant-to-take-money-from-a-waiters-tips/ I would also encourage you reach out to the Department of Labor, Wage & Hour Division, Indiana office if you believe this is a chronic issue with this or any local establishment: Indiana Indianapolis District Office Address U.S. Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division 135 North Pennsylvania Street, Suite 700 Indianapolis, IN 46204 Phone (317) 226-6801 1-866-4-USWAGE (1-866-487-9243) District Director Patricia Lewis Thank you again for raising this to my attention.
