How do you guys feel about this picture?

This world suffers from an extreme lack of humility, I think if people had to work these fast food/retail jobs for a month, their viewpoints would change



Thinking you're better than the next man because you got some extra dollars in your pocket when you're a paycheck away from being in his position is an unfortunate state of mind.

 

[Higher Tech]

actually yes
because, if it were to happen it would reveal the actual flaw in our entire economic system, which needs addressing anyway, further
if it was REALLY more fiscally useful to have machines serve people they would have done it already
they won't because, soon as mcdonalds does it and burger king switches to human servers we would all go there and they would have the edge

This.
All that speculation is bullshyt scare tactics. All the money they have and they're doing everything in their power to not share that cash.

People really need to realize that they're no better than the next man, Thinking you're better than the next man because you got some extra dollars in your pocket when you're a paycheck away from being in his position is an unfortunate state of mind.

Breh it's not about that. The world is fukked up. Until we start attacking the wealthy everything else in my opinion will not help. It's been this way forever.

Or we can do both. But damn if a fast food worker doesn't deserve a little more.

not every job is easily replaceable.

for the point he is making he does not need every job to be replaceable, just most jobs and that is theoretically the case or where we are heading
in fact we may find one day that the one job that is not replaceable is human contact by proxy of service position

...or maybe it's the fact that BLACKS DON'T BELONG IN THE MILITARY. I have fam/friends who have enlisted who would even tell you the same thing. You are fighting the WHITE MAN'S WAR in the WHITE MAN'S ARMY for the WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY that doesn't give a single flying fukk about you. I'll bet my bottom dollar people have come at you on some racist shyt in the military, you're just refusing to admit it for the sake of argument. I know all about it breh, racism runs wild in the troops. Best believe a good majority of those white troops look down on you, regardless of rank, but as I said, continue on the whole self righteous, pompous condescending bullshyt of being better than us all simply cuz you signed your life away as Uncle CAC's meat puppet. Ol' "I'm in the military, they think I'm one of the good ones!" ass nikka. Bet you're typing everything with a big ass kool aid grin too. You haven't had your wake up call yet but trust me, you will

I actually laughed at this post. It's a shame, some of you guys are still hung up on the racism deal. Its true, there's racism in the military, but tell me one place that doesn't have it. The simple fact, that I was uneducated, on welfare and WIC with nothing going for me other than joining the military to now riding in a clean as whip, degrees, homes and actually enjoying what I do. I'm doing something right. And you hate me for it Like it pains you to dap a nikka up because he came up with something out of nothing... you really have that much hate Man I tell anyone who wants to listen, that whatever they are doing that is not getting them what they want, try something else.

Funny thing, I am sitting light years ahead of you, while you sit and complain... well what has complaining got you lately? Have you ever thought that everything that your doing now, is not working for you - yet you criticize on what I'm doing is wrong.

Nikka, you disgust me - and you shame your parents and our ancestors Your mother should have aborted you. Why don't you do something productive for your parents and mow the lawn you bum

But do they PAY FOR IT? As in $$$$$? NOPE.

People who work fast food and other labor jobs, kinda do, and that's the whole argument against this stupid cac bytch. Let's see the troops have to pay for all that shyt outta pocket and barely afford to scrape by, then that bytch can complain. bytching about military pay , I've seen people in the military live very well compared to most of the working class, this bytch can shut the fukk up

i see you're point about black people joining the military. We aren't even citizens and are repeatedly shown that we aren't wanted as nothing but entertainment and paid slaves.

However, some of the best amongst us... some of the people amongst us who are doing the most good---- got there start in the military. And Military black people know more about racism than you ever will. Only a few are c00ns.........the rest don't even tolerate it and only use their time in the military long enough to get an education or a skill. Some make a career out of it........... but for some people the military was better than being a bum, or being a street nikka or just struggling because you don't have opportunity.

Nothing in life is free for the most part. Military benefits aren't just some free shyt. If your company paid for your parking, tuition reimbursement, healthcare, and provided group lunch sometimes - are u gonna be like ... "Naw I don't want it unless u make me pay for it" ? No, because it's ur employee benefit.

to join the military takes a sacrifice... so benefits are provided. IT's more cost effective sometimes and more simple to have troops living around each other and getting the same benefits. Realistically the military provides a great, but not perfect, blueprint on universal health care and education. Anyway, point is, that's just the benefit... the benefit comes with a responsibility and the shyt is earned not Given. You have to work - and some more than others. When i was in.. I worked 14 hour days in 120-130 degree weather in a dessert with 80 pound of equipment with only 1 day off a week... and that one day was still spent hearing mortors drop n shyt............ so How can someone in that position feel bad about getting healthcare out the deal? A nikka making Chicken nuggets isn't his equal.

A kid working in fast food should be in school..... there is grant money and loans. If not then he could join the military. if he thinks the military is some c00n shyt, aight... but whatever he does and whereever he ends up..........that nikka needs to realize that we end up here cuz of our our choices, not cuz of guns to our heads.

Hardly any job is as replaceable as the jobs he's speaking on.

I agree they do, nobody deserves to struggle. I just think the way the system is set up, that struggle will always be there even if you raise their wages. You pay them more, that money is coming from somewhere.

I honestly believe you could pay them $30/hour and you will still have 3 classes( poor - middle - rich ). It's like People forgot gas used to be $1/gallon , candy used to be a penny. You were living a decent life back then on what they make now. As long as we have greed in this world and laws the wealthy can work around. It's going to stay this way.

 

[Lavish]

Fast Food restaurants would not shut down. That's not even almost close to being true.

So what would happen if no one worked there? How would they serve food if no one worked there?

Are all the teenagers going to die off or something? A billion dollar corporation doesn't just go away because they can't find workers. They'll just offer more money

What's your point? I hope you're not trying to use my statement to prove MY point...

 

[Blackking]

no they won't.

Nobody is gonna voluntarily offer more money to a zero skill or very very low skill position. There will always be workers. raising the wage artificially harms everyone in the end. and if that happens, companies will just use technology to replace some jobs and fill the rest with people who accept market rate wages.
