A Waffle House waitress took to TikTok to share how much Waffle House servers make, and people can’t believe it.
In a Video that’s gone viral, a user named Lilly took to the platform to share how much money she makes in a single shift.
Filming the video from her car, she starts complaining about how strenuous the work is at the popular dining chain.
“Y’all know how Waffle House is – constantly moving. The only time I sat down today was on the toilet,” she reveals, clearly worn out.
After she sorts through the tips that she’s accumulated that day, she says that she received a total of $180.
She asks the camera, “Do y’all know anywhere where I can make some more money?”

“$180 for 7 hours is almost $26 an hour… that’s not bad at all. Good for you,” one user wrote.
“About to quit my job and go work at Waffle House lol,” another said.
“Damn I worked at Waffle House and it was a struggle to make 50 on a busy day and that was for all of us servers at that waffle house,” a former Waffle House employee shared.
One however, revealed that waitresses may actually be able to earn even more tips, depending on where they work:
“I found out in Florida… if you hit up those three, four, five star restaurants you can clear $344-$500 a night in like 5 or 6 hours.”
There are some instances however, where the subject of tipping gets a little out of hand, like when a woman raged at Sugar Factory employees when an automatic tip was added to her bill.
