No Salary 4 Years, No UIF, Waiters Pay Door Lady From Tips - Middelburg Mall

⚠️ EX-WAITER WARNING - CAPPUCCINOS MIDDELBURG MALL - 4 YEARS NO SALARY ⚠️

I worked as full-time waiter at Cappuccino's Middelburg Mall, Middelburg Mall, Mpumalanga from Aug 2022 to Sep 2026 (4 years).

My experience: 1. NO BASIC SALARY - only customer tips via speed-point. No payslips ever. Bank statement 39 pages proves no salary EFT. 2. NO UIF - never registered, no UI-19, cannot claim UIF after 4 years. CCMA Ref *** 3. ******* DEDUCTION - We waiters had to pay Door Lady from OUR tips. My bank shows "Cappos Door Lady R150" deduction 10 Aug 2026. Door lady paid R4000 no bonus, no UIF. 4. Also deducted for window washer from tips. 5. NO hot water for oily cutlery, AC broken front to back, renovations during service with dust in food, no cleaning service, no proper uniforms, no scullers - waiters forced to wash dishes while serving. 6. Manager ************ and threats-told me & colleague "can't wait to ***** you up" after I asked about tips. 7. Dismissed Sep 2026 for 07h02 late after they changed start 08h00 to 07h00 without consultation, no hearing.

I have filed: CCMA *** , Dept Labour BCEA+UIF complaint (no salary, no UIF, ******* door lady deductions) To hospitality workers: Ask for contract, payslip, UIF before you start. To customers: Check hot water and hygiene.

This is my true experience. I am not defaming - I have proof and cases pending. I want Department of Labour to inspect. #HospitalitySA #WaiterLife #BCEA #UIF #MiddelburgMall #Mhluzi #CCMA
