Happy Meals, low wages, and pay theft

Many fast food joints make their end of night shift employees punch off the clock then stay and clean on their own dime. Most employees need the jobs so bad they refuse to blow the whistle. Those that do threaten to report the boss get fired.

A violation of fair labor standards any way that you look at it.

*************

The murderer, Kevin Downing, was an older white Federal employee who had lost his job at the Department of Labor Statistics back in 1999, supposedly for blowing the whistle on a “pork barrel project,” which is odd for a liberal as they usually aren’t frugal with other people’s money. Apparently he was an economist at Labor; his late fiance’s cancer treatment had ruined their finances and his house was in foreclosure...

The victim was Idriss Camara, a black immigrant from Ivory Coast and father of 4 who was only there because he’d volunteered to work overtime... he had lost his father 3 months before.
