Don't forget 20% "service fee" which is pocketed by the owner.

The tip is also often pocketed by the owner because of the way a tipped wage works (basically if there aren't enough tips to cover minimum wage, it's as if you are tipping the owner), and also the payment provider (square or whatever) takes a cut of the tip and whatever fees too. Every dollar should be regarded as going to the owner and/or silicon valley billionaires no matter what, the whole notion of paying staff is smoke and mirrors.
