We’re allowing low-skill people to come into this country to fill jobs that won’t exist in ten years.

And you know what they say about "Idle Hands"......It isn't going to be pretty.

That manager doesn’t realize docs don’t make 30 bucks an our. If they do, they are not doing it right, on any level.

Arrogance can be found anywhere, and you saw a great example of it.

Like I said before, this is different-a higher end restaurant (for our neck of the woods) and people expect service.

Time will tell. I’ve worked there a very short time and it’s been fun. The tips are great. I guess I will just enjoy it while I can.

Maybe we should try to get to know our niebhbors, spend where ther is respect and stop paying $100 a month to be able to order robot pizzas on our iphones.

Know the owner, know the cook, tip yer waitress.

I hate were we are going.

Not really a great reason to do anything, considering.

That’s yet another factor: as prices forcibly rise above natural economic flux, supply-and-demand will adapt by customers wanting more for their money. I paid $23 for a fast food lunch for four today; raise it much more and either give me superior food or I’m going to a sit down formal restaurant instead.

I used to be a vendor for a mining facility in Florida where there were 200+ employees and it was 15 miles from anything, literally nothing but trees and brush for 15 miles. Prepared food? Even further.

Imagine this pizza making machine with some refinements and sitting in the lunch/break lounge.

Last time I was in a Sheetz and came face-to-face with the kiosk, I walked away. I need to look the woman in the eyes as I tell her how to make me a sammich.

when the prices get higher than I want to pay. I stop going there. I had been going to the Maryland Fried Chicken in Plant City, Florida for chicken for about 40 years. Last week the price was what I consider the breaking point. Their chicken is now worth more to them than to me. I have no desire to return.

When a long time server said something about it affecting tips, the manager stated, “You’re not a doctor, you don’t need to be making $30 an hour.”

Real...story. I work in a hospital...we get moonlighting Doc's here seeing patients.

I asked one, one day...how busy she was. She said she was getting real busy that day...making $35 a progress note. Meaning...she might see that patient two minutes and review the chart. Write a note..but no orders..and go on her way.

Or, she might get stuck for two hours..making that $35 too. And then again...she might have seen 50 patients times $35 during her 12 hr. shift.

Waaaaa.

Chinese wheelbarrow: $80

Bag of cement: $17

Food: too high.

Fuel: too high.

Vehicle: you’ve got to be joking. I’ll build one myself.

Small tractor: ha! I’ll build one myself.

It’s time for new blood in business, politics and academia.
