I went to an Arby’s a few days ago, and there was a hand-written note on the door saying the lobby was closed because of inadequate staffing. Everywhere I go, I see “Now Hiring” signs, but young people these days seem to think they are too good to work at these jobs.
It’s called “Stimulus Checks” for the unemployed. it’s neverending, evidently. They make more money not working than working.
RAISE the F’IN wage and people will work.
This surplus of fast food locations is caused by a massive subsidizing of labor via both legal and illegal immigration since the 1970’s.
Every f’in business now thinks they are entitled to only pay very low wages to employees and now they have a NON-VIABLE business and are trying to keep it up and running in a labor market that is NOT viable for their business model.
CLOSE these places DOWN. They NEED to go out of business and free up labor and investment capital where it is much more needed.
