Good News in the fight for 15.

[Wyatt earp]

If Wendy's can do a job with machines for a buck an hour, they'd get rid of people making 2 bucks an hour.

They would get rid of people making 50 grand a year also dumb shit if it was economicly feasible...



What don't you retards not get?

This may backfire on Wendys. Many Americans aren't gonna appreciate it eliminating American jobs. Many will stop eating there. And also, never estimate how fat, greedy, and lazy most Americans are. They feel entitled, they want the service.

Now they'll be doing the work themselves. Moving towards self-serve service is gonna be a bitter pill to swallow for most fat lazy Americans. So calm down greedy white Republican dude, don't go celebrating this too much just yet.

Who's celebrating it?

The point here to the chagrin of the minimum wage pushers is that there is a price to pay when you attack industry. Everybody on the left thinks that when you increase costs to a manufacturer or service outlet, they simply dig deeper in their pockets.

There is no truth to that because automation has been happening in manufacturing for decades, it's just that few knew about it.

As for fat lazy Americans, those fat lazy Americans will do anything for a cheaper price. I remember when this started with self-serve gasoline pumps. The idea was for the garages to keep their mechanics working on cars instead of pumping gas for customers. They all started off with perhaps one pump. As that pump became increasingly popular, they added another self-serve pump, then another one.

It didn't take long before all gas stations were self-serve. Now they are doing the same in grocery stores and places like Sam's Club.

For some odd reason, the cost of minimum wage employees is the only wage that drives up the cost of product. Executive and management salaries have managed to escalate over the last ten years while minimum wage has been stagnant........yet, it is the minimum wage worker who is greedy

Let me explain something here: a worker is only worth as much as the next person willing to do the exact same job. That's how our worth is determined.

You can't get just anybody to do a CEO job. Oh sure, it looks simple in movies and like, but this is real life we are talking about.

If you clean toilets, flip burgers, turn nuts onto bolts for a living, you are doing a job that anybody can do. Because of that, the employer can find people to do those jobs for low wages.

If you get a skill such as an electrician, plumber, welder, bricklayer, they pay better because not everybody can do these jobs.

Education is great, but only if you are educated in a field of work that has demand. There are people that graduate college or trade school that make less than a mailman.

Typically, yes

But in a poor labor market where workers fear for their jobs, employers can set any wage they want
Let the taxpayer make up the difference

What the taxpayer does is not the business of the business, it's the business of the politicians. Employers have nothing to do with welfare programs. That's why it makes no sense to go after a business for what they decide to pay a worker. We should be going after the politicians instead for giving people welfare who work under 50 hours a week.

No, Walmart (like any other business) makes their money by selling products and services.

If there was no welfare, Walmart could continue paying employees $7.50 per hour as long as they find people to work for them. And let's face it, the majority of minimum wage workers are retired people, school kids and stay-at-home wives or mothers.

So most of the workers they have now are the same they would have without welfare. But because we have welfare, those people limit their hours and income in exchange for taxpayer money.

IDIOT!!!!
There are MORE workers at companies then the ONE CEO, or ONE CIO, or ONE CFO!
See this is where this stupid comparison is being perpetuated by idiots!
Big f...king deal that the CEO makes a million dollar salary!
The CEO is the decision maker. Responsible for the thousands of workers that get paid. Responsible for the short and long term business decisions
that generate the revenue that generates the pay for the thousands of workers.
YET you stupid idiots constantly complain about these handful of executives that make the company go!
The employees don't. They were hired by the executives that made the decisions to build a plant. Hire people. Buy equipment.
Do you idiots that make these stupid idiotic comments about executive salaries comprehend the gross distinction?
Would you rather have a business run by the masses? With decisions about what products to make, where to sell, who to hire done by the entire employees?
Many of whom don't give a flying f...k! They will say ..."we're not paid enough to make those decisions!" YES!!!! BINGO!!! that's the f...king POINT!
The CEOs,CIOs,etc. get paid the big bucks because they make the decisions... not the $7.25 / hour worker.

SO idiots that constantly bring up this bogus phony argument about executives pay... NEXT there is a decision to build a plant, or hire people, or
do an advertising campaign costing millions... THINK would YOU be able and capable to make those decisions??? Probably NOT because the shear
fact you make the complaints about "executive and management salaries means YOU aren't capable of understanding how to run a business! Dummies!

45% or 1,153,000 were age 16 to 24 years
1,408,000 are 25 years or older or less then 1 of 2 minimum wage workers!
Of which 542,000 are men over 25 years...family men"???? Most likely not! 1 out of 5 or 21% over age 25!
Characteristics of minimum wage workers, 2015 : BLS Reports: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics

2,561,000 workers out of a work force of in April 2016, about 122.74 million people were employed on a full-time basis.
Think about idiots! YOU all get excited about MINIMUM wage for a group that makes up less then 2.5% of the work force and 1.1% of the USA population!
Idiots that want to put these 16 to 24 year old out of work to do what double what they make now?
These 2,561,000 people's primary job skill is being on the job daily and being on time! That's what they are learning as basic skill sets!
Raise their minimum wage and the economics work against them being employed!
Here is what you will have:

No problem, it appeared you were angry with me so I thought perhaps you misconstrued my post or thought you were posting to somebody else.

What the left does is find some minority of a minority to try and make their case as if it were the entire picture. They tried to do the same thing with Voter-ID. First they found some clown that wrote a book claiming that there was no record of ANY voter fraud in this country, and after you post dozens of stories on voter fraud, they change their story to say the amount of people is tiny and wouldn't make a difference, or they find one in 100,000 people that actually have no ID and may have a difficult time getting one.

This is the same thing. There are not many minimum wage workers trying to support a family. Yet, by reading MSM and liberal posts here, you would think that most minimum wage people were trying to support a family, and we are facing a crisis in our country.

Simple-minded liberals - "Lets force business to pay people at least $15 an hour and we'll all be rich".

Report: Wendy’s to Roll Out Self-Serve Kiosks by End of 2016

may 13 2016 Wendy’s fast food restaurant chain says it will begin offering self-serve kiosks at its 6,000-plus locations across America, making them available to costumers by the end of 2016.

They're doing this with the minimum wage at 7.25, not 15.

To hear those nasty repubs, like butweasel, tell the story, 7.25 an hour is too much. By a lot

Now they'll be doing the work themselves. Moving towards self-serve service is gonna be a bitter pill to swallow for most fat lazy Americans. So calm down greedy white Republican dude, don't go celebrating this too much just yet.

Americans accept the self serve check out lanes at walmart and safeway.

Stores and Restaurants are moving towards self-serve servce. And yes, some are ok with that. But many other Amercians aren't gonna handle that too well. They're used to being catered to. They're lazy and feel entitled. Basically, Americans are spoiled rotten. More & more stores and restaurants are hiring less and putting less staff on duty. This means the customer is beginning to assume more responsibility for their service. In other words, they're beginning to realize that they're gonna be doing much of the work themselves in stores and restaurants.

The good ole days of fast and friendy service are fading fast. Me personally, i enjoy placing my order with a person. I gladly pay a little more to let the person handle the computer and do the work. I'm not there to work. I'm there to just order some food and relax. I don't mind the workers making some good cash to do the work for me. So all you folks bitchin & moanin about workers making 'too much' money, just remember that for the most part, you'll soon be doing the work they used to do in stores and restaurants. And you won't be getting paid for it. You won't be able to complain about 'bad service' anymore either. You'd only be complaining about yourself.

The only thing Americans love more than being catered to is low prices. While you and I may like the old way of doing things, we are in a minority which is why the providers of our products seek the cheapest way to operate.

This isn't anything new. This has been going on for a very long time now. This is why we on the right try to warn people that every action causes a reaction. It's not theory--it's history.

If the left are somehow able to increase minimum wage, then there is going to be a price to pay--that's it. There is simply no way around that. So the question is, are we willing to pay that price or not?

I don't use them unless the store is really backed up. I'll be damned if I am going to work for free.

Soon you won't likely have a choice. Many stores and restaurants are hiring less and putting less staff on duty. You'll be doing much of the work their workers used to do. They are moving towards a more self-serve service.

I have a relative who works in Management at Walmart. And he said the plan is to make the store much more self-serve. He said he's already seeing numeorus outraged customers over the under-staffing. They can't accept that they're not being helped or catered to as much anymore. They get very angry. But folks are just gonna have to get used to doing it themselves. Self-serve service is where things are headed.

This may backfire on Wendys. Many Americans aren't gonna appreciate it eliminating American jobs. Many will stop eating there. And also, never estimate how fat, greedy, and lazy most Americans are. They feel entitled, they want the service.

Who's celebrating it?

The point here to the chagrin of the minimum wage pushers is that there is a price to pay when you attack industry. Everybody on the left thinks that when you increase costs to a manufacturer or service outlet, they simply dig deeper in their pockets.

There is no truth to that because automation has been happening in manufacturing for decades, it's just that few knew about it.

As for fat lazy Americans, those fat lazy Americans will do anything for a cheaper price. I remember when this started with self-serve gasoline pumps. The idea was for the garages to keep their mechanics working on cars instead of pumping gas for customers. They all started off with perhaps one pump. As that pump became increasingly popular, they added another self-serve pump, then another one.

It didn't take long before all gas stations were self-serve. Now they are doing the same in grocery stores and places like Sam's Club.

Ah, i admit i'm pretty lazy. I don't mind placing my order with a person and letting them do the computer work. Hell, i'll even pay more for my food if i have to. Let em make a decent livng. I don't go to stores and restaurants to work. I'll gladly pay workers more to do the work for me.

But those days are quickly passing. Most stores and restaurants are now hiring less and putting less staff on duty. So fat lazy America should just quit bitchin about 'Bad Service.' Because soon, there won't be many workers around to blame for it. Fat America will be doing the work itself. They'll only have themselves to blame for 'Bad Service.' No more whipping boy workers to beat up on.

The faster you get the humans out taking my order and making my burger, the better.

Cool, that's likely gonna be happening soon. But don't think that's gonna benefit America in any way. More Americans out of work isn't anything to celebrate. In fact, we'll all pay much more for that in the end.

Report: Wendy’s to Roll Out Self-Serve Kiosks by End of 2016

may 13 2016 Wendy’s fast food restaurant chain says it will begin offering self-serve kiosks at its 6,000-plus locations across America, making them available to costumers by the end of 2016.

The fast food giant’s decision to move toward automation comes just as “Fight for $15”–a progressive protest movement, pushing minimum wage hikes–is applying pressure on state governments to raise wages for low-skilled fast food workers.

Last August, Wendy’s CFO Todd Penegor told investors that mandated wage hikes will cause his company to pursue other innovative avenues that could lead to fewer jobs for low-skill workers.

they are doing it in the anticipation of the 15 dollar wage. They are not going to wait until they are put out of business! This is Wendys after all, not the federal government. They are operated by competent business people
