If your business plan can’t make a profit while paying your people a living wage, than it doesn’t deserve to be in business.
Expecting people to live paycheque to paycheque in order to subsidize your desire to be a business owner is the Pinnacle of bullshit.
The new law, a modified version of the FAST Act proposing a minimum wage increase for fast-food workers to $22 an hour this year, has faced resistance from major chains such as McDonald’s, Chipotle and Chick-fil-A. These chains said they plan to raise menu prices to offset higher operating costs.
Can’t trim executive pay or profits. Must cut out services. All hail the mighty dollar.
Same reason my bank branch has tons of empty stations and only two tellers and a long line. Same reason they’re closing the drive-through lanes where my mom banks in the midwest. Convenience for customers is now the enemy getting in the way of higher profits.
I recently introduced my partner to The Sopranos. It opens with Tony Soprano commenting that he feels like he got into the scene (the mob) at the end of its heyday. I feel that way about capitalism.
We repurchased 10 million shares totaling $1.2 billion at an average price per share of $119.
They are just greedy. They have the money, but giving the money to the rich is evidently more important.
That’s irrelevant.
Fibre is good for your health.
absolutely the worst pizza chain that exists. i do not understand how people can stomach all that grease
Somewhere you just made Papa John smile.
the last time i had pizza hut, their last chance; it was typical, a grease pit. that poor cardboard. i filled out an online complaint form and the store manager called me asking what they could do.
“change your recipe. you sell grease with a little pizza”. i was honest with the guy, its not his franchise thats the problem, its the product. i had finally learned my lesson. pizza hut clearly hasnt learned theirs
Not minimizing or dismissing what you’re saying, but they must do something different over here, even as a franchisee, because it’s not the best but not that bad either. I can’t imagine what exactly, but we have other chains that I’d avoid first. Papa Johns doesn’t even have one location on this island. I think they’re all on Oahu with maybe one on the big island.
I HATED Pizza Hut growing up in California. Way too greasy. Single slice of meat lovers would make me sick. Then I moved to Illinois for a few years and it was night and day. Suddenly Pizza Hut was GOOD. Light, flakey crust. Right amount of ingredients. No grease. Moved back to California and it was greasy shit again.
I dunno, there’s definitely some regional differences going on.
It’s kinda crazy how like these things that should benefit employees like minimum wage increases, end up resulting in them losing their jobs through no fault of their own.
America is fucked up lol
Oh no! What ever will these minimum wage workers do? Surely not find another minimum wage job that pays $20/hr? No def not!
Oh no! Whatever will these minimum wage employees do now that literally anywhere else will pay them more?
