I never liked fukking Wendy's ever since their food made me throw up when I was a kid. I hope they go the way of Blockbusters and get replaced with Arby's.
So it begins- Wendy's To Switch To Self Ordering and Automation To Avoid $15/hr Wage hike

fukk learning another language to professor status. I rather get a damn app and cut through years of mental strain. Basic expression and sentences, I don't mind studying that. Full blown conversations if I still live in America? fukk that! Even when I go overseas, I still want to learn the language the easy way and progress faster.
Besides, traveling the world for temporary work is not the endgame. That will leave you to being Gypsies status.
How much does wendys want to pay?
Broke Wave
The GOAT
So let me get this straight... In order for wendys to be profitable, it needs its labour to be subsidized by the Federal and state government providing its workers with housing healthcare and foodstamps?
Doesnt that mean... Wendys isnt actually a profitable corporation and is being propped up by the tax payer?

If I learned anything from economics its that companies will always do what's in their best interest and consumers will always do what's in there's.
If you base all of your expectations on that basic theory, it's easy to see why the government has had to step in from time to time and forced companies into behavior that is inherently against their best interests, such as minimum wage, antitrust laws, etc.
The problem becomes that every time you force behavior that impedes that core desire, you create the potential for new unintended affliction. That companies desire to do what's in their best interest is like a river. You can divert it, but it never stops trying to go where it wants and if you restrict it too much it becomes a dam.
The trick in my mind is to understand that the way to make it in a companies best interest to increase wages, is to make it affect their business if they don't.
Consumers hold all the cards, not the government. I have healthier food options in my kids happy meal now and it's not because the government instituted a new law, it's because they lost business by not having it.

There is not much customer service going on in these places. I've got stories ( as we all probably do); but when I am at firehouse, and I am clear and adament about them not putting a pickle in the bottom of the box, and the order taker is looking me dead in my eyes and says " yes I understand" and on the receipt it also states " no pickle", yet I get home and open my sub and the foul stench and odor of pickle has pierced my nose and has gotten into my sub.
I had 1 simple request, yet they still couldn't manage it, but they deserve 15.00?

The #1 Rated Mixtape of all Time
long term this is insanely cheaper thoughLOL. They're willing to automate the cashier and spend that money to then renovate all these locations instead of a pay raise.
people aren't buying from these fast food places like that anymore though so in the long long run stores will be closed up

Because they don't want to pay unskilled employees an inordinate amount of money?
Good Pay
No education, no developed skills
Choose one
Who the fukk would pay $10-11 for a fast food mealThey would go out of business overnight

/thread. I think Wendy's will try it and fail. there will be boycotts and bad press for them.
The poor has to stay poor. Not starve to death, that messes with the above classes.
