This guy sounds like he is the Poster Child of the Left’s “Living Wage” campaign.
I would guess they would let him go, but I’ll bet that, with the turquoise hair, there would be a lawsuit.
You hire a 17 year old kid at minimum wage out of high school, find one that works hard and wants to learn all he can about cars, suspensions, tires, and how to fix and replace them, and he will move up the ladder on his own.
By the time he is 21 (or earlier) he won’t be working at minimum wage like this turquoise-haired no-load would be. By the time he is 25, he might be an assistant manager, and by 30 he might be a manager, and that business has a great employee.
That is what things USED to be like a long time ago.
I despise the Left and their focus on giving minimum wage jobs more money, trying to achieve a “living wage” (whatever the Hell that actually means) for wastes of oxygen like this person.
I suppose I should be grateful they give more focus to giving someone who has a formal job more money...I guess they haven’t had time to focus on what they REALLY want which is a universal basic income in which no-loads don’t have to even have a job.
The “living wage” is a defective idea outside the field of politics.
A guy who makes AOC’s $24/hour for one hour each week isn’t going to be able to support a family.
The fundamental economic equation is:
(hourly wage rate*hours worked)-taxes > necessary expenses
