    Start hiring the millions of illegals crossing the border every day and that will fix the problem.

    They'd be very grateful for the opportunity to work at minimum wage. When all the jobs are filled and gone the people that quit them will one day be wishing they didn't quit when all the free gov money stops coming in.

    Problem solved.

    That's what happens when you sit on your asss at home for a year with Covid shut downs. People get lazy, comfortable doing nothing and then don't want to go back to work.

    Covid shutdowns really screwed up our economy and the people. Thank you Democrats.

    Sure let's pay the BK fry cooks $20/hr. Then when just the whopper by itself is ten bucks? They will sell out
    Working at BK is a job. Not a career. Now, if someone enjoys it? And wants to make it their career, good for him. Work your way up to management.
    Some states have done the right thing and started auditing unemployment claims. Others have not, and therefore you have major issues in the service industry where capable people refuse to work

    Fast food places are not meant for people who are trying to make a living with their families. It is for younger kids trying to earn some pocket cash . Or people just trying to make some extra spending money.

    Problem is you have kids not doing crap in school that graduate learning zero skills (No child left behind BS ) and does not know enough to get a normal job like others have . So all that is left are these fast food jobs where they will hire anybody. And it shows at times when you get your order which is wrong a ton of times.

    The federal government renewed it 3xs for over 55 weeks of eligibility @ $25,000 per year federal PLUS State ($30k overall)

    Tack on a eviction moratorium and mortgage deferrals and here ya go.

    NOW, I have another theory here.

    Child support.

    I think that ALOT of dudes lost jobs last year and fell behind on support. Working no longer makes sense if they're garnishing all your wages at this point.

    Need child support reform

    Exactly. Minimum wage is $14.25 in Ontario. Most of the people doing these jobs are uneducated immigrants who can't speak proper English. They are actually not too bad at doing it because they need and want the job and aren't quitting but it takes five minutes to explain to them what you are ordering. Kids are meant for these jobs for the most part but they are unreliable and hungover every weekend. No one should get paid more then. $10 an hour to flip a burger.

    If these fat redneck American fuxcks want their McDonald’s orders right….15 bucks an hour they will get paid. You ever see a trump rally? They put gravy on their aspirin. Fast food is important to them.

    I agree totally. I don't think there are many people that are graduating College or High School even going out into the real world that say Wow now i can finally fulfill my lifelong childhood dream of working at Mcdonalds and doing the fry Machine.

    I worked at Roy Rodgers when i was a kid at the mall. I was fine with that. Now if someone graduates college and wants to Manage a fast food place i am sure that would pay decent i would think. And i am fine with them making a bit more but they have to earn it. Start at $10 . After being there a year and they learn more skills to do more things other then flip a burger give them $11 . This makes them work harder for their pay and show up more. If they are always calling in sick and not showing up keep them at $10 a year later. Only the decent workers get the raises.

    If i ran a fast food place i would have no issue paying someone $16-$17 an hour if they have been there 6 years and have always shown up when they should and have been a great employee. After 6 years that person would also know pretty much everything that needs to be done there. You know the turnover there is high so workers that are good are valuable.

    a lot of the states opted out of 300 a week unemployment from state. as far as eviction moratorium, that comes with the burden of proving that you can't pay because of something covid related. here in fl you can still get evicted. Biden ending the extra unemployment in September. Also if you had a shitty low wage job like mcdonalds you won't be getting 300 a week from state, thats like the maximum if you had a high end job. Those guys probably getblike 150 a week without the extra government unemployment. I don't know about you, but that is not enough to make a living off of
