Call for boycott of his restaurants and Panera Bread!
I’m old enough to remember when liberals were “the working man”.
BOY! Those days are long gone!
Who tips McDonald’s employees? The 16/ hr employees probably make good tips?
“You’d have to be stupid to work at a place in Whackifornistan for less than 20 bucks an hour.”
Tip on a $200 dinner $30-$50.
I’ll bet they are horrible tippers. They’re leftists after all.
Voldemort: "There is no good and evil. There is only power... and those too weak to seek it."
I assume he meant $55.00 for a bottle of wine.
The cooks and the dishwashers are waiting tables?
Typical libtard - rip off the little people and stuff the money in your pockets
Does anyone really think the law applies to the Elites?
What does the new law say? Lock him up?
I bet he gyps you on the food and stuff anyway.
If my memory serves me, the new law affects only larger businesses with over a large number of employees. Does this restaurant meet that threshold?
