The minimum wage for restaurant, diner, and bar servers is much lower than the minimum for other workers. Your employer is obligated to pay you the server minimum, nothing more. It sounds like you need to find a more popular establishment. *In Kentucky and Indiana, the employer is supposed to pay you the difference between what you make in tips and the minimum wage if your tips do not bring you up to that. It is very seldom that tips do not bring the wages of a server up to minimum wage when averaged over a period of a few days to a week, so employers assume that overall you are making minimum wage or more and do not make up the difference if you have a bad day every now and then.

Can a doctor call a patient to come in for a pill count without advance notice?

"Pill Counts" are typically reserved for patients who receive narcotics or controlled substances. Doctors can demand--at ANY time--that one, or ALL, patients come to the office for a spot "pill count" and/or urine and / or blood testing. IF a patient refuses or cannot appear at the required time, a doctor by law can dismiss the patient without notice. The reason pill counts are done without notice to patients is because:If pill counts are correct, you shouldn't require extra time;If pill counts are not correct, doctors don't want a patient to try to buy replacement off the street or other illegal means.Pill Counts are to protect patients AND doctors. If you are responsible about taking only what is prescribed, you should never have any problem or complaint about appearing with your meds in hand to show them you are a responsible patient.
