A family member owns four fast food restaurants. She is having a tough time staffing them. As the articles no one wants to work, even those who say they do.
I went to a business office last month.
Sign in the window said “New Covid-19 Office Hours: Whenever we feel like it”.
while no doubt it’s about money..
do you want to work all day in a mask with plastic gloves on all day?
I don’t, I won’t. but I don’t work for fast food. I work for me.
Chicago teachers want to stay off the job, and get paid their regular salaries? They are no longer teachers then. Why do Chicago parents need to pay taxes for nothing, as their children are being denied even the substandard education they normally get. Fire them all, every single striking teacher, and administrators also. They are responsible for all of this. They will be gone. What difference will it make if they are? Hire new teachers with the money that is saved. Problem solved.
Sorry to say, if I were a school teacher I wouldn’t want to work either. Even when I was in school I thought there was something wrong with a grown up who wants to spend decades with 13 year old kids.
I’m sure there are some great teachers, I had several. But as ever the 80:20 rule applies.
Nice cartoon btw. Perfect metaphor.
NOBODY wants to work in a mask all day. I stay outta places that I am required to wear a mask for more than a few minutes. Forget browing or window shopping indoors.
Really haven’t noticed. I live in Virginia, where nobody wanted to work anyway. The McDonald’s that is slow in 2021 was just as slow in 2019.
A very nice Christian woman runs a small local restaurant and she constantly has staff that flakes off and won’t work, it’s killing her business and wrecking her.
Not just hospitality workers.. had a guy give me an estimate on a concrete patio.. same on that did my asphalt driveway. Said he had to close the asphalt side down because he couldn’t hire any workers.. they all stay home, get unemployment and their stimulus checks and won’t work.
Sad day in hell for this country.
Why work when you can sit on you a$$ and get Biden/Pelosi stimulus check(s)?
People are too lazy collecting unemployment and watching Netflix all day.
There’s a McDonald’s by us in Spring Hill, FL dealing with the same situation. And is it me or does it seem to be SOP for fast food employees to intentionally mess up orders so they can get fired and be eligible for unemployment and fake a disability or two to collect the govt “crazy bucks” and live off us taxpaying schmucks? Kinda feels like being the only one at the poker table who’s not cheating.🤬
All this will do is strengthen the calls to allow in more illegals who are willing to work.
What family members who own two businesses have been experiencing is that more people would rather sit home and collect the stimulus money being thrown around than put in a full day of labor. People have already admitted it. Many businesses in our area have Help Wanted signs out but people are like, why work? And honestly, would an employer want to hire those people anyway? The Dementiarats have brought this country down in such a short period of time, it’s amazing.
One would think that there would be a market for burger building robots.
If I were in the hog slop business I would replace every one of the slacker employees with a machine.
Fixed it for you...
I went to an IHOP last Sunday. Service was terrible! Slow to bring drinks, slow to take our order, slow to get our food! Slow to clean the tables of those who left.
But the food was excellent when it finally arrived.
“Hey, man, I ordered my, like, Quarterpounder with cheese, like, a half hour ago. WTF?”
Friend’s mom, worked retail for ~$300/week. Was laid off due to store closing. It wasn’t an “essential” business, so they said and lost too much money.
Now she gets $4,000/ month in unemployment.
Goes without saying that she’s not motivated to work.
The core of “the great reset” free paycheck for enslavement. I wonder if one day soon she’ll be required to get the vax for her handouts and how she’ll react.
I don’t want to work, either. I’d much rather lay on the couch and collect government freebies. That’s the life.
