You just sound like a clown who wants more for less. You also sound like a clown who can't hustle and never had business of any size in his life. Your low skill restaurant job belongs to college students while they persue greener pastures. If career restaurant workers want more money they can work more hours, get a new job or go work for a restaurant chain.
Maybe they need to challenge their aptitude and seek more. With 9 million jobs available and owners that can barely pay their bills in the US right now we'll probably see alot more closures as big fish takes little fish out.
The trend of not taking decent money for your age and level of skill is a mistep on the part of citizens.

CHICAGO, Ill. (WIFR) - Small businesses have been badly damaged in Illinois in the year since state-mandated COVID-19 mitigation protocols took effect across the state.
35 percent of small businesses are closed now compared to before the pandemic, according to data collected from the Opportunity Insights Economic Tracker, a project of Harvard University. Analysis from the nonpartisan Illinois Policy Institute using this data found more small businesses have closed in Illinois than in any other Midwestern state, except Michigan. Illinois’ massive decline in the number of small businesses ranks eighth worst in the nation.
Bryce Hill, senior research analyst at the nonpartisan Illinois Policy Institute, offered the following statement, “This data illustrates Illinois small businesses’ struggle to survive during the COVID-19 pandemic over the last year. Small businesses are the main job providers in the state – 69 percent of all new jobs created in Illinois come from firms with fewer than 20 employees. It’s vital they survive and reopen.
- 50 percent of small businesses in the food services and accommodations industry and 51% of small businesses in the leisure and hospitality industry have closed, compared to before the pandemic. These were the most affected sectors in Illinois.
- Nearly 38 percent of Illinois small businesses in the educational and health services industry are still closed, the sixth most in the nation.
- Over 30 percent of small businesses in the transportation industry are still closed in Illinois, the eighth-most in the nation.
- Nearly 34 percent of small retail businesses have closed, eighth-most in the nation.

The Middle Class being destroyed. This is great news

You talking about some shyt you about to do and ain't done shyt yet. Holla when you actually have business expenses. An actual business, with staff that aren't working for free, cuz you the homie. Sit down.
I stand by what I said. Make the rent and cost of living less expensive and I'll change my tune.

Folks talking about $30/hr to make pizza. Construction trades barely make that. 
Most college graduates don't make thatAt that point why even go to school when you can get paid $30/hr making pizza

If you pay $21 an hour and they are all leaving for higher paying jobs then guess what... $21 an hour aint enough.
Its really not that complicated.
I remember the last job I left not all that long ago. They were shocked I was leaving. I told them I found a higher paying better job.
They responded that I was making more than the market average already.
So?
I dont care if I was making double market average... if someone else offers me triple, i'm taking that obviously.You can use all the complex economics you want, but for most jobs that are experiencing this... ya'll simply aint paying enough.

Well it appears that unskilled workers are being offered jobs that pay well enough where they don't have to work 2 jobs to keep a roof over Thier head.
It's almost as if mom and pop shops have to compete in this so called free market
This guy is full of shyt. 2 people called in sick, so he had to close for a whopping 1 day. Dude milking this one off situation to the fullest.
