Now we get to the meat and potatoes, your an entitled business owner who got used to it being one way, but now it's the other way and you want to bytch and moan about it. American capitalists love the practice until it bites them in the ass.
I do buy this.

But at the same time, the model has changed and you have to adjust.

You are not entitled to have a successful business. Businesses have been skating by forever in America using low wage operators to make profit. It ain't flying no more as there are more options and people aren't taking those jobs anymore for whatever reason.

@KushSkywalker
if only it worked like that, but it effects more than just min wage workers. For the 5-10 posters that quoted me saying I shouldnt have a business if I cant afford employees:skip: my business profit is still amazing, i just unloaded the extra costs on customers by raising entry $10 more. As far as “taking advantage of employees and now that I have to pay more” doesnt apply always to min wage. When you raise the min wage, you also need to adjust for the more professional people at that level that now want higher wages. My average hourly employee in 2016 or so was around $25/hr (part time, still $100 a night). Now it is $37.50-$50/hr($150-200 a night) For the same (or in some cases worse) work. Because they know at $20-25/hr people dont want to work for that anymore

That's why I call it the chicken little bullshyt it is:mjlol: nikkas don't think about the full scale of what they're saying

Like in 6 months every fast food restaurant is gonna have a million dollar Iron Man arm in the back making #2s:mjlol:

These people are morons

and they broke

the fact this many people are complaining about fast food, over priced trash ass food, means they most even have full kitchens where they live where they can store and cook food comfortably

if every Mcdonald's went out of business I wouldn't even notice, chipolte's food is terrible

fast food is like the last resort if you are traveling on the run or just starving and only got 7 dollars to your name, and it still you better off going the grocery store

where you can buy breed some 88 cent packets for turkey, and some bananas and nuts

The potential effects of automation are often drowned in chicken little talk

Where are these robots? We see videos of them all the time and they do a good job of scaring nikkas but they're rarely if ever implemented. Why is that?

Automation will fast become diminishing returns when the people you're trying to sell automated services to can't afford your shyt

You think every McDonald's can afford to be automated?

Automation is quickly being exposed for the scare tactic it is. Every time workers demand better treatment the news trots out the robot vids:russell:
You're in for a rude awakening. Automation is 100% coming as no smart society would continue to pay man what a machine can do more efficiently and for free. More jobs will be created elsewhere but automation is inevitable.

chipolte's food is terrible
It's a great alternative to eating processed fast food when you don't feel like cooking.

There needs to be more spin-offs but it's not easy pulling off what Chipotle has done in terms of delivering a healthy fast foot option. Other cuisines would be welcomed with the same format (ie: Jerk, Mediterranean, BBQ etc)

that chipolte shyt is so easy to make, you can get month supply of that shyt for like 25 dollars at the grocery store if you just buy the ingredients and make it yourself, mutahfukkaz is lazy and want slave labor

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 know raising pay doesnt fix the issue (actually magnifies it, see California as example). Cost of living needs to go down. Their is a difference. But see, we are 2 rational adults. The people in this thread are mostly younger adults, bums or underachievers.

I’m all for paying employees more. But that rise in wages will get passed on to the consumer. That $10 burger will eventually increase to $15-$20 eventually and then we’ll see consumers vote with their wallets..:manny:

Breh they already raising the price on Mcdonalds meals. I went to a Mcdonalds in GA since I'm living with the inlaws for a spell and the Big Mac meal was damn near 10 dollars:picard:. It used to be 5 something:francis:.

This is some scary times but can't go wrong with a cheap sandwich from Wally World versus the struggle of dealing with a stubborn industry that will continue to treat their workers like shyt.
