D.C. gay bar hit with class action lawsuit over wages

A lawsuit alleges that Cobalt/30 Degrees was improperly taking a special 'tip credit' exemption from having to pay bartenders the full minimum wage. A former bartender with the Dupont Circle gay bar and restaurant Cobalt/30 Degrees has filed a class action lawsuit against the establishment, accusing its owners of violating federal and D.C. labor laws by allegedly forcing bartenders to share their tips with non-tipped employees.
