Businesses like those want to pay $10/hr. If they paid more, they’d get better quality people to work there.


Nobody is paying $10/hr. Every fast food and otherwise introductory position is paying $12-$15/hr. That’s not attracting “better quality employees.”

Even if it’s $15 those workers can go elsewhere and make better money even as unskilled workers.

the food industry does not actually pay per hour

they jack your tips, call it your wage, and if you fall short, then they pony up to pay

food industry has never covered the labor cost like any other normal businesses

the customers have always paid for the labor, and the tip you leave is actually helping the business make more money, not the server

all my kids worked service industry, work 40 hours, and chili's writes a check for $8, tips paid the rest of the labor.

the tips should have been extra above your minimum pay, that is/was the spirit of tipping

the restaurant business model has been flawed from the beginning, and the IRS policies are the only thing that keeps it afloat

now the birds are coming back to roost

sorry, but not sorry
