Entire staffs at 3 sonic restaurants quit when the wage is reduced to $4hr plus tips

[75 Others]

And that’s where it stops

Agreed

closest Sonic's to NYC is in Jersey...and i ain't never been hungry enough to drive out to that shyt...

They supposed to have opened up one in valley stream mall... but I still haven't gone out there yet... $4 an hour is fukking insane... Foh

 

[KillerB88]

No.

That was rhetorical. They do. I've been in several threads about healthy eating in the past year alone where this was a central talking point.

I go to the one in Elizabeth, NJ every now and then. I never tipped. It's fast food. I ain't tipping shyt. The food isn't even diner quality. They don't even come out on skates.

No employers (major chain at that) contribution to its employees wages should ever be less than minimum wage. Straight up.
That's an insane amount of loot per hour, per employee, per restaurant Sonic gets to pocket.

At the end of the day, it comes down to us to support these people. If I was a regular, I would boycott them too.

Republican economics strikes again. While those workers will struggle to pay rent or get enough food to survive, the CEO of Sonic will add a new movie theatre to his yaht, and write the demolition of his old one off on his taxes.

$4 an hour living in cali???
The audacity

And this is why folk need to go to school and get an education. So you're not forced to work these bullshyt jobs.

Not in that area, so...NO.
Have you lived there? NO.
There a multiple grocery stores and mid level dining establishments near that part of Columbus.
People liked that Sonic and Columbus just gor the franchise a few years ago.

Education with the "right" major isnt enough. Especially in America where 325 + million people reside. Not A single country more than 200 million people has first-world quality of living outside of America, and even in America the quality of living is dropping.

We need worker unions again. I know TLR economists hate to hear that, but a service economy aint gonna solve shyt in the long term but give out stress.

Somebody should have shyt in the icee machine
