It is illegal for the employer to pay you under minimum wage unless you also work for tips. Your tips count as income.

It's illegal for an employer to PAY under the minimum wage.
In the US the federal minimum for most untipped employees is currently 5.15 an hour. Many states have a higher minimum, so depends on where you live.

The minimum wage law is posted on a bulletin board at every work place I have seen. I thought this was a federal law but maybe it's a state law.
