If by "take" you mean confiscate them from his staff - no he may not. The tips are considered (even by the tax authorities) to be part of the earned income of the servers and wait staff. While there may be an agreement among the staff to pool their tips and divide them equally at the end of the shift, the owner may not convert these tips to his own use.

Is it legal in Maryland for a owner to make you tip them out if they are to cheap to schedule a bartender and do that position while being the manager?
Although I am not an attorney, I've worked in the Food and Beverage industry for 25 years (+ -) Employees receiving tips are just that.....EMPLOYEES. An owner does not receive a specified 'salary' amount, or tips as specified by the Employment Commission; as owners they are bound by law to pay their employees, vendors and other overhead costs before they show 'profit', 'salary', 'wages', or 'tips'. Added: In total agreement with the first ansser HOWEVER - you REALLY need to check with the Maryland state agency that controls wage, hour, and labor issues...., and perhaps the ABC Board as well.

Does Starbucks allow its employees to get tips?
Absolutely. And read the recent newspapers (March 2008), a court said Starbucks was required to NOT include the managers in the splitting of the tips (which they had been doing), and pay the other staff a huge amount for the tips that the managers had already received! So, I guess while they allow tips for their employees and work team, they can only allow the actual tip to go to certain employees! >It depends if it is a corporate Starbucks or not (like tom thumb or target)
