Pathetic? Yes, now we're getting closer.
What an effort from this young person to bend to the will of those corporate masters. Bastards. Pretty soon they might even ask her/him to mop the floor or something else much more demeaning. Oh, and too darn bad the kid had to take out his lip rings.
Nevermind your lip rings are what most of us want to look at when we go in to order and eat our "veggie" subs". (BTW, Veggie subs??? What's the point? It's like ordering a decafe coffee with skim milk and Nutrasweet)
And pity the poor kid! Wow! S/he has to work for "minimum wages"...What the heck ya think, Einstein? You just gonna fall into a job where you are making $100K a year because you are you? And you did WHAT to deserve more than minimum wage? These jobs aren't meant to be paying "livable" wages. They are entry level jobs! These are the "dues" you will pay until you get more experience, and move up the ladder.
Do you suppose this kid knows this? Do most kids know this? Or is he/she just some kid ranting because the world doesn't treat him like his excrement is ice cream and the rest of us are just holding cups waiting to help ourselves?
May this kids eyes be opened, and hopefully before dad buys him his own restaurant too.
It sucks working for minimum wage under such conditions. I've done it.
