Eventually McWhoppers will be built like banks and the few employees inside will have no contact with the lunatics outside. No windows. Talk to the speaker. A reinforced steel box extends out for payment and delivery of your order.
I worked at McDonald’s my junior and senior years of high school and first year of college. Started off at $1.00 an hour and left at $1.60. Paid as I went in college. Never even thought about a student loan. I liked McDonald’s food well enough. We would get two hamburgers and fries for our lunch break, and all the carbonated beverages we could drink. I rarely go there now, mainly because the local McDonald’s are always packed. I actually like fast food, but my wife requires that anyplace we eat must serve Margaritas. 🤡
Great. Higher prices and fewer businesses. Good job you Leftist idiots.
Seattle is already at a $19.97/hour minimum wage for large corporations.
In January 2025, all Seattle employers will pay the same minimum wage, regardless of size.
The current Washington state minimum wage is $16.28.
What some folk don’t understand, is there are lots of illegals in the fast food industry...And government in concert with woke big biz are bending over backwards to pay the illegals as much as possible...Vote for us!
eventually liberals are going to mess things up so bad that even folks in NY and California will start voting Republican
By then the illegals will be legal and outnumber us two-to-one.
Well done!
Easy. Close the doors. Go out of business. Most of the stores in San Francisco are shuttered due to crime.
Pay for high school jobs werent this good when I was young...
H.G. Wells : “Amy, I don’t want to compromise you. Are you quite certain I’m not forcing you to...”
Amy Robbins : “Forcing me? My God, Herbert, I’m practically raping you.”
except for contributors to Newsome like Panera
HS workers now unable to get that start up job.
And don’t come here illegally with a third grade education from Mexico, not learn English in 20 years, and complain about a dead-end, low-paying job. I figure this is the woman quoted in the article.
My wife and I stopped for some impossible burgers at the Lampasas, Texas Burger King. $16 for 2 burgers. I haven’t been to a fast food restaurant in a couple of years. The price is insane for Biden Burgers.
sometimes I see Whopper Jrs 2 for $5 and I can’t believe it.
I live in a small town in Arizona. Low cost of living.
The In-And-Out restaurant pays about $19, minimum. And yet their burgers are about $4.
In general, I’m opposed to high minimum wages. But some establishments can pay a high wage, and still keep prices low, such as In-And-Out.
As a white man, I fear fast food.
And the fear is founded.
The average profit margin for a fast food restaurant in San Franciso is between 6 and 9%. So if that drops, then you are not outpacing inflation.
Most of those businesses, not only in San Francisco, will close down.
Minimum wage jobs are not meant to be career jobs. That’s why they have high turnover, and pay low.
$20 an hour is $41,600 a year. The price of the food will sky rocket, and less people will eat there. Thus, means they will have to have shorter hours and less employees.
After I graduated...went to work at a Hosp. less than a mile and a half from my house.
Moved to OK..Best move I ever made.
We have some restaurant's that serve good food...way better than Mcd's
