Opinions/Advice

I work in a hotel and my friend also happens to work in the same hotel with me. We both work front desk but on the side but I also do waitressing for the kitchen for breakfast 2x a week. I was having dinner after work with my friend/coworker and I was discussing how I’m confused how I’m getting paid more on my paychecks when I’m getting less hours but she reminded my tips are getting added in too (so my pay of 11.50xhoursxtips). She calculated for me on her phone and it did add up but then she realized she’s getting paid less (only $11.25 hourly). Over the next few days we discussed and she felt that she should at least also get paid $11.50 hourly because they want her to work as front desk executive management and we’re having a lot of changes to the hotel and staff. Front desk has been getting more and more responsiblity that usually upper management wouldn’t let us do without their approval, she feels she should be compensated for that because she works full time (I don’t) even if it is .25 cents. And I agreed, they are constantly pushing her to the brink of what she can handle and when other coworkers demand a pay raise or else they would quit (and they have). She texted our manager about maybe getting some answers. Our manager told her that I was paid differently because we negotiated my pay rate at my interview (slightly untrue) and that talking to other employees about their pay rates is against code of conduct in the employee handbook (it’s not, I looked and also it’s against the law for there to even be a policy about that). Now, my manager wants to speak to us separately and my coworker has heard for our operations manager that she is planning to write us up/reprimanding us for talking about our wages.

So, I’m just asking in this situation what would you do? My coworker says she’s going to quit if she gets a write up but I think it would be best to talk to our corporate management company (HR).

I need more friends.
