uncle joe will feed them
when i grow up, i want to be a millenial middle manager
Now that those workers walked out, they can hire new ones at a lower wage.
PEOPLE WERE SO MUCH HAPPIER 3 YEARS AGO.
Restaurant margins are cratering. If they don’t lower wages, they will close. That’s why so many restaurant chain stocks are trading near multi-year lows. This manager may think his company exists to employ people. That’s not reality.
Stupid move on the part of management. In my neck of the woods, I’m seeing “help wanted” signs everywhere. Folks evidently don’t want to take entry-level jobs.
So now this regional manager decides to alienate the workers he has by suggesting that new workers be hired at a lower pay. Good luck finding those new workers.
By the way, two-tiered pay schemes usually work against the older workers. Because you can bet management will find ways to let those older workers go (or cut down on their hours). Sure, absent a contract that’s the right of management. But ignore employee morale at your own risk.
Typical Harvard MBA logic, trying to correct supply/demand to their whim with known results.
Who needs to be fired for letting employees see a sensitive communication from the Regional Manager, or was it the Regional Manager who addressed the email to the minimum wage employees?
Wherever I worked for forty years nobody was allowed to talk about salaries or pay. And no, I never did, even when co-workers asked.
I have always found Applebees to have average food, at best. The one near our home closed last year. I bet no one will care if it stays in business or not.
If I’m reading this correctly, nobody is getting their wages cut.
New employees will start at a lower rate.
Lawrence, KS needs to fall off the earth and the state would be better for it.
That being said, this is just what upper mgmt knew the lackey manager would do so they could just fire the lot and hire totally new staff at lower pay. KS is an at will state and the minimum wage for your job can be as low as Zero. Maybe you need another liberal arts college loan to mull it over.
I’d be disgusted if I came to Applebee’s for lunch at Applebee’s and it was closed because of woke employees. Same with Disney.
What sort of stupid-@ss manager tries to cut salaries during an economy-wide labor shortage??
Oh, Wayne. Sucks to be you.
THE PLAN.
Wal-Mart
Amazon
Zero competition.
And who stayed open 2020 on....
now that all of the existing workers quit who had higher wages, the restaurant can now hire ALL workers at the new lower wage ...
Bad management will cause a company to fail pretty fast. These managers seem to be idiots.
The problem now is that there's a shortage of people who can afford to work for low pay and the decades of bringing in illegal aliens from all over the planet has proved to worsen the problem.
Here is a picture of wayne. He looks like a real tool.
Maybe someone will be interested enough to post it here. I don’t html.
