Not for me. I'm one of those guys who will be just fine and only work a little harder for almost double the pay.

I couldn't give a flying fuck if everyone else starves at this point. The only people that will truly be forced out of the job market are leeches, losers, idiots, and democrats.

I didn't mean to repeat myself.

Basic income when?

Just like in Seattle, right bootlicking cuck?

>who get orders right the first time

Former fast food worker here.

When there's an issue with an order, the overwhelming majority of the time it's because the customer didn't understand what they were ordering. They used the wrong name, mistook one item for another, didn't understand how the coupon worked, etc.

They just don't have the intellectual honesty to admit they were wrong.

>Used to work at a McDonalds back in '10
>Had customers in the morning who would order 10 saus biscuits
>Come back 30 mins later saying we only gave them 5
>Same guy every time
>Came to the point that we counted the biscuits in front of him at the drive thru window
>He still fucking came back saying we only gave him x amount

Yea it's the workers fault for not getting the order right in one go.

>Guy orders a crispy chicken sandwich
>Finishes it halfway and comes to counter
>"Uh I order the Southern crispy chicken"
>"Sir you basically finished the sandwich we gave you, and you didn't say southern you just said the regular crispy chicken sandwich"
>"Uh I want a new sandwich"

My manager gave him a free sandwich and told him that this is the last time.


Working in fast food is miserable because customers would do anything to cheat the system and get more free food.

Even pizza is slowly being replaced by removing the delivery boy.

>Corperations suppress wages for decades
>People finally demand a raise so they can afford to live
>Retards get angry for some reason
>"I HOPE THEY REPLACE U WITH MACHINES!!!"
Do they realize that productivity has gone up exponentially along with corporate profits, yet salaries haven't budged an inch in, again, decades? Why are people so into having boots on their neck?

The day when I no longer have to interact with any other humans cannot come too soon.

>raising the minimum wage in an area with absurd cost of living is exactly the same as raising it nationwide
Also, since apparently you don't know, it hurt Seattle too.
It's basic fucking economics that if you raise the price of labor, people are going to lose their jobs and prices are going to go up.

>implying feral niggers would let this be a thing outside of prototypes
FREE PIZZA NIGGA

Pls tell me that's not real.

It would be easy as fuck to rob. Even if it has cameras and an alarm just throw a sheet on it and tip it over.

digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/dominos-pizza-delivery-robot/ He's real

My tuition just went up because of 15, fuck you.

Amazon has a section that you can buy food from.
Not the best selection, but enough to where you could live the rest of your life off of it
I actually have this planned out for when my mom dies and I have to live on my own

The minimum wage doesn't work. It just results in unemployment.

god bless domino's

The last time I ordered pizza it took more than an hour to get here and was delivered by some stupid wetback who barely spoke english

Where I live, ordering in Spanish or Somali is about your only hope. I just use my phone and play a pre-translated order.

Ordering in English is hopeless, unless you can find a Slav or East Asian to take the order.

>Do they realize that productivity has gone up exponentially along with corporate profits, yet salaries haven't budged an inch in, again, decades?
That's because automation is making products better and faster than human workers. This causes profits to rise, productivity to rise and salaries of meatbag workers to stay the same or drop.
Raising minimum wage won't fix this. It will just encourage corporations to automate even MORE because you just gave up the one advantage of human workers: they're cheaper.

>go to burger king
>order 3 spicy chicken sandwich
>they give me 3 regular chicken sanwich

fuck em

Oh, how convenient. The thing that forces corperations to actually pay their employees magically results in them firing people. Oh wait, they choose to do that because they're more concerned with profits than people. I guess we'll just have to wait for them to pay their employees more out of generosity.


Any day now.

It's been 3 decades, but I'm sure it'll happen

Just stick two ARs in the head with the barrel pointing out the eyes and put a nigger sensor on it so that if any monkeys come within five feet it turns and blasts them

>tfw mcdonald's no longer has a spicy mcchiken
>BK didn't have tendercrisps last time I went
>kfc doesn't sell fucking buffalo wings anymore
fucking triggered man

>It's because of automation
Have any sources to cite, or are you just repeating corporate propaganda?

fast food isn't a career

YOU HAVE 20 SECONDS TO COMPLY

PLUS TIP

How is this not common sense to you?...
Have you had a job in the past decade?

BK killed their old spicy chicken too. used to get 3-4 with extra sauce almost every week for a year before they switched to some shitty spicy sauce

And a skilled worker would realize this and correct it. An idiot that deserves minimum wage wouldn't. Luckily, the store can turn the screen to the customer, fire the employee and everyone that matters is happy.

...

heres a nice tip for you. if you find yourself in a position where you cant get hired, or are just fed up with nothing getting done right because they cant understand you, because every service job is taken by mexicans. go into those places and start conversations with as many as you can if any one of them doesnt speak english it means they are illegals. just call immigration and tip them off. about a week later there will be english speaking people in their place and the business owner will never hire illegals ever again. problem solved. drop the dime every time.

Lol

Last time I ordered Dominos it was a literal 350lb neckbeard. I bought pizza for my shift at work (like 7 guys) so we had a ton of pizza and soda.

He has a whole stack of pizzas at the gate and goes back to get the sodas and he brings me two 12oz bottles of pepsi.

Nigger, I just ordered a god damn feast and you think I ordered two small bottles of soda?

It's too bad this was in America and I still had to tip him and clap for a successful delivery.

So let me get this straight:
>Company makes more money
>CEO gets huge raises
>Corporate workers get raises
>Actual employees get nothing
Enjoy those boots on your neck, you corporatist drone

For a lot of middle aged americans, it is. Just because you look down on a job doesn't mean it's not critical for someone's survival

snopes.com/seattle-15-minimum-welfare/

WHAT'S TRUE: Five full-time Seattle caregivers may have asked to adjust their hours in order to remain in subsidized housing.

WHAT'S UNPROVEN: More than five to seven workers have deliberately reduced their working hours to retain subsidized housing, workers are spending fewer hours on the job to retain benefits other than subsidized housing, the Seattle minimum wage law has caused an reduction in overall hours worked by low-wage workers.

id tell you to eat a dick but a liberal faggot like you would probably enjoy that too much

You are assuming that the customer would be cooperative to correction. Which is a massively flawed assumption.

Nice bait, though.

>fast food
>survival

Ok

>We have these here already
>Fast and easy to use
>Never gets my order wrong

Nope.

Sorry you don't want people to be paid wages that approach the 21st Century.

I kind of want to support the minimum wage, but only because it accelerates the process to getting a UBI and a post scarcity economy due to automation. I don't want to be associated with socialists though.

What a predicament.

Another dank brown guy from Toronto shitpost

I think it would be worth it to show a special flag if a Canadian post is coming from Toronto or Vancouver so we can all easily ignore it

Friendly reminder that people are asking for less hours so they can retain their federal benefits.

That's pretty sad user. They make weed for people like you.

Never. The idea that people should get paid for existing is insane. Genocide will happen before basic income.

>Hurr durr everyone who works fast food is just doing it for fun

12 is much more realistic 15 is pretty damn insane but you know what it will do? instantly give raises to people that are making more than 15 bucks an hour.

>>Company makes more money
Yep...
>>CEO gets huge raises
The people who own and run the company by making all of the important decisions...yep
>>Corporate workers get raises
Again, people who are actually important people who would be hard to replace, yep
>>Actual employees get nothing
Lol "actual"
You mean this shitty people with no skills to speak of that can be replaced at the drop of a hat? Yeah, not much motivation to give them a raise when it would be more cost effective to just replace them with And that's the key term: "cost effective"
All of those other people got raises because the alternative is more expensive. You don't get a raise for your shitty braindead work because you're already at your max pay in terms of cost efficiency. You're literally choosing between having a job and not having one by asking for a raise and it's your own damn fault.
Want to be eligible for more money? Get some fucking skills and an education. Get SOMETHING to bring to the table other than the fact that you have two arms and, theoretically, a brain.

They'll have to enforce hiring quotas for niggers, so that the human staff earn $15 an hour doing their job properly, and they waste $15 on the chimps that can't ooga their way out of a booga if they were paid.

>government suppress wages for decades
>niggers finally demand a raise so they can afford to have 6 kids and buy an iphone
>educated, long term thinkers who understand economics get angry for some reason
>"I HOPE THEY REPLACE U WITH MACHINES!!!"
>they get replaced by machines
>taxes go up
>smaller portion of the economy is productive
>everything gets shittier for hard working honest people

fixed it for you

Obviously dominos is smart enough to only deploy them in white neighborhoods. If there's any legal issue with that they will just have to say they based it off of "crime statistics", and they will be right and excused.

For honestly skilled employees who make over $20 an hour, this minimum wage is going to turn a lot of heads since people who worked there asses off for there positions are getting paid almost as much as Jamal who just started a weeks ago and smokes weed in the back all day. But no one says nothing because he slips the manager drugs and they ooga booga together.

>Lived in The Bronx, New York for 20 years
>Looking out window at like 1am
>Wild nigs surround another, probably housetrained nig coming out the pizza shop with a bag, likely a slice or two
>"Yo run your slice nigga"
>Surrenders his $2 pizza

I want to say this is a little hyperbole but not even close

Management here. I've briefly worked in fast food management, so let me explain.

The person standing behind the counter making the bare minimum effort to run a cash register has absolutely nothing to do with how profitable a company might be, outside of a potential slightly negative effect.

If a company is making more money, it is 100% the result of the hard work and innovation of the CEO and corporate workers. If the board of directors implements some excellent policies that increase revenue, they deserve to be rewarded. There is no corporation on the planet that ever saw a noticeable increase in profits because of anything a cashier did.

They are faceless, interchangeable leeches and if they wanted a share of the company's profits, they'd put in the effort to climb the ladder until they reach a position where they're able to make decisions that earn them that profit. Even a fast food general manager is at this point and the requirements for that job are distressingly low.

If you really want to make a career in fast food then even the most basic, slight amount of effort will result in your being promoted to a shift leader or assistant manager. Many fast food chains will pay for their managers to get basic degrees so they can continue to promote them. The industry is desperate for motivated, hardworking people and every one of these people crying for increased minimum wage could be making more than $15 an hour right now if they'd just put in the fucking effort.

Don't support it. Automation is cool, but the faster it gets here the more we pay in taxes to support these dumb asses with no skills. The middle class subsidize the income for the poor while the rich make all the bank.

I was about to respond, but then I saw the flag. Shut the fuck up, leaf.

>place an order
>don't order a damn thing special
>speak loud and clear
>make sure it's read back to me
>it still gets fucked up

As a former fastfood worker I would like to agree with you but I can't.

When I retire and no longer give shit about the wage slave life I want to take a job as a delivery driver in nigger neighborhoods just for the opportunity to gun down thirty or forty of them legally.

Too bad some beaner still needs to make my food, call me when they make a robotic cook

Do the people already making $15/h get a raise?

The absolute worst fucking idea you could have in our current world. Should we pay every single mud person who can make it here simply because they exist.

>Here's your paycheck for breathing which you will just vote to increase until we are bankrupt

How about close the southern border and reduce immigration/work visas that are flooding the market with cheap/desperate workers? There would be more competition to get workers and eventually wages would have to rise to attract them.

Also, if you stopped the scam trade deals that sent all the legit middle class jobs out of the country, people could find real jobs that payed enough to live on instead of all these minimum wage mcjobs that don't pay enough.

So instead of whining to the government about raising minimum wage, you could actually create a healthy functioning economy again.

>tfw bust my ass for $11.33 while working on my degree
I'd flip my shit if I ended up making as much as a burger flipper in my town. I'd just quit to go jerk off in the cooler of whatever fast food place I got hired at.

If you're working a fast food job past high school or college you are a failure and it's probably best for everyone if you starve

I'm sure that happens on occasion, but man I get it all the time and I know to be very clear and I know what I am ordering.

No tomatoes - get a plate with diced tomatoes on everything - oh cant you just brush it off?

Order hard fried egg - get runny crap EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Jokes on them though, I just eat at home more often as a result.

This. My current job only pays around 13.50 and a lot more is expected of me than your average fast food place. I've worked at almost every position at my last fast food job and there's nothing there that deserves 15 an hour.

Hamburger, plain, no cheese nothing on it, just meat and bread.
>get a cheeseburger with pickles and sauces

Fast food isn't even worth it anymore because you spend just as much time waiting and trying to get your order corrected.

Yeah, I used to work at McDonalds before I got my current job
>almost everything is pre counted
>fries get pre measured by a machine that dumps them into the tray
>all the fryers have preset timers
>the grill is preset with timers
>the register is fucking retard simple with pictures
>literally the most demanding part is assembling shit during a lunch rush
>even that wasn't hard

It's worthless bottom tier work and anyone doing it that thinks they deserve more money should just fucking kill themselves.

I just drive to dominoes and pick up my pizza, it is always ready when I get there. I am back home with my pizza faster than it would have been delivered.

Fpbp

Massive fat fuck who eats a shit load of fast food here.

When there's an issue with an order, it's the worker's god damned fault. I know this because certain places fuck up orders waaaaay more than others.

If it's the customer's fault, why does one McDonalds in town fuck up my order almost every fucking time while the other McDonalds never fucks it up? There's a worker at a Taco Bell I go to, some 60 year old middle-eastern retard with the name Mr. Amin on his nametage, and he fucks up the order EVERY TIME. EVERY FUCKING TIME.

IT'S NOT ME IT'S YOU. STOP FUCKING UP MY ORDERS I WANT THE SHIT I ORDERED NOT THE SHIT YOU THINK I ORDERED

>tfw mobile ordering is taking the human interaction out of it
>tfw they can't fuck up my order as much
Now if those retards could remember to put everything in the bag...

They are working on it.

Found the nigger everybody

Why do the sob stories about the minimum wage always feature single mothers with kids?

Why would you choose to have children without being financially secure and with a spouse's income to support you?

>easily cleaned and reloaded

So some Somalian is going to defecate all over it after every shoddy cleaning session. Great.

Niggers.

>san francisco

Good god

So what? More people working fewer hours means more jobs to go around. Even if they are shit tier jobs, isn't that important to fascist fucks like yourself, that everybody work even if that's mcwageslavery?

I know hatin' niggers is a fucking lauded pass time in your inbred neck of the woods, but which is worse when they do nothing and work the system, or when they do a little and the system works for them?

This is a fucking rational choice that even middle class people make when they realize that a promotion or slightly higher paying job may ultimately fuck them by putting them into another tax bracket.

Yup. I understand the emotions involved in the counter argument, but they're just that: emotions. The free market pretty much insures that people are paid according to the value they bring to the company. And they're going to be paid a bit less than their actual value, because the whole point of a business is making money. I aim for making the company at least 1.5 times my salary and benefits, because I prefer job security.

I fucking love engineering. The simple thought of a huge machine making a customized burger from scratch using the freshest ingredients makes my dick hard. I guess us Germans all have a fetish for industrial grade efficiency.

>I fucking love engineering.

What the fuck is with you krauts?
