How much do you pay your employees
A Chipotle general manager and 4 of his employees quit after a surge of to-go orders drove them to t
- Thread starter bnew
- Start date
And bolded is one of the biggest issues
We value nikkas based on their jobs which leads to nikkas talking about certain workers like they're sub human
Nikkas get off on looking down on the nikka dropping fries or sweeping the office floor
Pay them MORE!!!
Correct... and charge more for the food if demand is the crayzonday.
WTF...
The crazy thing is people are okay with paying the egregious fees relayed by food delivery services. Your meal is 12 dollars... but once the Dash driver is at your door... total is nearly 30 bucks.
Y'all mothafukkas ballin'. lol.
I'm eating roman noodles, fukk all that.

You’ll catch flack for saying it, but in general raising pay doesn’t fix the issue. There’s been a generational culture shift too. Why would a kid flip burgers when YouTube stars are making millions playing video games?
I’m still interested in the end effect of all this. Because too many people are used to the conveniences of fast food. Everybody is applauding folks quitting… until they can’t find good service when they need it

i'm not sure if thats the case for a salaried manager.
Damn that dumb bamma playing hisself
edit: a salaried manager from an unrelated business.

More people need to cook at home anyway.. America may start losing weight behind all of this.
My man you are talking about that YouTube shyt like there hasn’t been generations of kids who wanted to be Rockstars or ball players. in theory being a successful YouTuber is easier, but just like the other stuff I mentioned, most people will not bear fruit in their pursuit. Not to mention you can do the YouTube stuff part time so if someone was working a shyt job and their YouTube takes off enough to supplant the income they want to pay, who gives a shyt ?
As for your last point, you are speaking to the selfish nature of people. Yes there are going to be some people who switch stances when they can’t get something they want done, but a substantial amount understands especially in the social media era that this is a watershed moment and some inconveniences now can lead to great gains very soon. Let the economy collapse again and it’s gonna show itself. Anyone griping about a lack of service later does not mean they are not right to see what the service industry is now. Peoples desire for convenience won’t change overnight.
I just had to come back here because this shyt has me ready to rant like noooo tomorrow.
Dig this. I dont feel sorry for these folks one bit. You know how many fukking times it was busy and we got paid minimum wage. We basically worked through everything. The raise would be 15 fukking cents. If anything, that shyt motivated me, made me humble and saw that shyt for what it is.
Hell, even this whole quitting your job makes me sick because i remember when i did the same exact shyt these folks did and I WAS STRUGGLING TO FIND WORK. As i said, im living or have lived the life that a lot of these guys are speaking about but either didnt live that shyt or they forgot where they came from. Either way, real heads know what that struggle life is like and theres folks going through way worse than these fools who are chose to do that shyt and are quitting.
shyt should motivate you to want or go for better but folks dont see it that way. Youre supposed to work there and find a better job IF you can but that shyt is temporary. All im gonna say is just be real because its a cold world out here. Be ready to freeze if you dont have a safety net

Crabs in a barrel short sighted mentality. If the lowest paid jobs get a raise, it’s going to ripple across the economy.
The people that down fast food workers have no idea what they are talking about. It’s a hard fukking job and the people doing it needs to be respected. I’d argue mastering the grill, cash register, customer service, team work is harder than a line worker in a factory doing the same repetitive task all day. Why not put these service workers on par with decently paid factory workers?
The crabs in a battle mentality has to stop.
The bold has already happened. Millions of people who needed a break through to take off got that shyt with those PPP loan come ups.
You have a large amount of people who've gone into their own business ventures and doing good so far..
Thats why this thread is depressing to me.. People with no drive/vision.

Went to Jersey Mikes when app orders started popping off last year....the amount of online orders plus the shyt they'd normally have to do actually shocked me, and they had the nerve to only have 3 workers. Corporate left them nikkas to the wolves....they wasn't ready at all
.
You even had bytch ass customers waiting in the corner, arms folded looking mad as hell that their orders were taking too long. I would've walked out on the spot.
I hate people who are willing to wait in ridiculously long lines for food
Go home bytch, its never that serious, line wrapping around the building like a fukkin burrito
Ill go home and eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before I wait with these mouth breathers
All I know, is if u order pickup through doordash for chipotle, your order will be ready and waiting when u get there, u just pick up the bag with your name on it and wonder why the hell all these people are waiting in line. There's no markup on price, and a lot of times u can use promo codes.
The payscale as a whole needs to be brought up to date in the fast food industry, but with higher pay more is expected from u, not sure the current bunch of fast food workers in this country can handle that.
Not really my concern anymore, maybe once a month I go out to eat for lunch. Eating steak with potatoes and Mac and cheese I cooked fresh this morning. Fast food culture in America is getting insane

That’s still not as bad as the Popeyes around the corner from where I stay. They only had two employees in there and one was the manager. They both were on the verge of tears
Cut the digital orders off. If people want food, they need to come in the store to order. Do that until staffing gets back up.
