Worked fast food as a teenager for $7.00 an hour. It was harder than my current office job which pays me triple that wage.

The only honest boss I ever had, who had just been promoted to "program coordinator" and realized she had gently caress all to do between meetings.

I wish I was better at speaking in front of people because apparently that's the most important skill to have in real life and promotes people to high-paying positions that send motivational emails with stupid memes in the morning, sit around between meetings, and gently caress off with other higher ups.

For real the minimum wage should be raised to like 12-15$ per hour. Think about it goons....if the unskilled and uneducated get a pay raise of that magnitude, those who already make more than that will get a pay increase as well to keep the compensation scaled for skilled and educationed workers.

every person in America should spend two years working full-time in either retail or food service, make it a compulsory service like Israel does with the military

2 years is way too long. 9 months would be sufficient.

The food industry isn't bad if you're a sous chef or better or an executive. The hours are still insanely cruel and most execs get paid better in other fields but it's one of the last industries outside of entertainment where you can get away with sexually harassing tons of uninformed young people. I worked for a chef in college that did that. Probably still doing it now. I'm sure he hates himself, but probably not his job.

But yeah I guess that just means if the food industry appeals to you and it's not because you love drugs, stress, and being broke you should off yourself.

This was p.cool when I was in the industry but since leaving it I find that having money is a much better way to accomplish this feat and it also has other cool uses

I feel bad for everyone working in the food industry. Not only do you have a lovely job with lovely pay, people get pissed at you and try to manipulate you. I try my best to be nice to them, even if they get something wrong, because their job is already bad and i dont need to make it work.

This, unironically. My dad works in the same building as the people that own half his town. When I met him for lunch one of that family(I think the mother) was in front of us. She orders a sandwich, treats the clerk like poo poo, then says, "Can't make money if you give it away :smug:" and hits the no-tip option.

The woman also spent hundreds of thousands last year making sure transit didn't go near her building because then poor people would be able to find her. gently caress the rich.
