@MetalSonicReject Месяц назад

And that’s where the root of the problem lies: the executives and CEOs don’t want to make less money. So be mad at them, not the workers for wanting higher wages to pay their bills. Why is that so hard to understand? Is it because it’s easier to be mad at the workers because people can complain to them instead of the CEOs or what?

McDonald's prices rose outrageously BEFORE the new wage law. Some things doubled. I don't know how the wage law has changed things because I quit McDonalds months ago.

@TheAircool1 Месяц назад

@@joeanthony8087 thats the issue Businesses want it to be a part time/entry levrl job but require the number of people seen in full time career jobs to function properly. 30% of the jobs in this country are minimum wage. Yet the number of people who are aiming for an entry level/part time job (high schoolers, college students, recent graduates) only make up around 15-20% of the population. Its simply unsustainable and may lead to the service industry collapsing in the future. We're already seeing the effects of this. Many minimum wage jobs in major cities are dealing with labor shortages, since these jobs do not pay enough to live on. Plus, with the largest section of the workforce (baby boomers) retiring, there is a LOT of higher paying positions opening up. Even states with low minimum wages are seeing most minimum wage jobs in cities pay far higher than legally required just to get the minimum staff required to function.

As a fast food worker, I am now at $20 an hour. But the irony here is that I am making way less now. Why? Because any business that has to pay $20 an hour has slashed employee hours to part time. At $16.50 an hour, I was getting 6 to 8 hour shifts. At $20 an hour, I am only getting 4 hour shifts and somedays, only 3 hours. So I have taken a significant pay cut. And with California auto insurance having just gone up 33%, and rents that just keep going up and up, I don't know how I am going to survive. Thank You Governor Gruesome.

These franchises already have to cover the inflated prices of all their products and the extremely high fuel cost to get them delivered.
