Its not. He's in a very narrow field and really doesn't understand social science or behaviorism.
Its strange how he understood when he went to college all that dozen years that increasing his worth had a direct relation to increasing his quality of life.
but now hes ignorant.

Absolutely.
Good thing he's got an 11 year old around the house to tie his shoes for him.

How much will prices go up?
without knowing the specifics of that particular restaurant, you know we can't answer that.
but the average Waffle House server gets around $10 an hour (according to Google).
increasing that by 2.5 x's will need to be offset somehow.
that's by either cutting some other cost or by increasing prices.

The white flag has been waived.

Can’t cut much if anything with regard to facilities.
You can cut either the quality or quantity of food but that’s going to hurt you as much as raising the price, because you are still getting less per dollar.
What’s most likely to happen is that the number of people working there gets cut as much as possible to offset the increased labor costs.

Which is a wage shock, and puts Waffle House in an economic disadvantage.
They are not going to pay unskilled workers $25 an hour.

Cut people. The egg guy is now also the toilet cleaning guy.

Their business model would get overhauled if it was forced in.
Either fewer people working there or poorer performing locations get shut down completely because they are no longer profitable.

Correct. The few remaining Waffle House workers would be happy, the rest will be looking for work elsewhere.

The couple I've been to near me over the past couple years are already working with a skeleton crew. Since Covid they have struggled to consistently staff their restaurants. I don't know the solution, but $25/hr probably ain't it.
ETA: The last time I went the cook (hell of a cook and been doing it for years and years) served, cooked, got our coffee, etc. He said he was making more money than he ever had since people started not wanting to show up to work. The other side of the house had a single waitress, and there was one floater doing the dishes and everything else. Three people running a Waffle House on a Saturday morning.

Good. 90% of them suck.aybe stop eating at places because you see commercials for for them.
The "free market" will fill the gaps.
We only eat at local places anyways. The food is better.

All that makes sense.
I was just wondering how the poster I was responding to came up with 30% as a lower bound on the number of store closures.

No one believes youre mentally well off.
So, you have 6 quotes for yard work. Raul has been doing your yard for months for the going rate of $50. So Raul decides one day he is going to get $150 from you or not cut your grass.
You will hire someone other than Raul to do your work regardless of what fairy tales you spin..

In my limited restaurant experience, they also pay better, they value people who are willing to work there long term instead of treating them like disposable garbage, and the pay differences between employees was more merit based.
