Until the minimum wage is increased to a livable wage, boogers will keep going into burgers!!!
Say what you want, but unadulterated food has always given me the willies.
living wage my ass, you pay a waiter 25 dollars and hour in this country and they hide from patrons and smoke weed pens they got with a bogus PTSD diagnosis handed out by some green medical sham.
Notice the adjective minimum. Not meant to be a living wage, but an entrance wage.
You never know what you’re eating unless you prepare it yourself.
As a teen my summer job was dishwasher at a resort hotel. The chef used to spit in the soup when he was mad at management.
2:22 - So, groceries and supermarkets never have a problem with food you purchase and "prepare yourself?"
This isn’t a low wage problem. It’s a low culture problem. I will welcome the day when robots take the place of kitchen help.
I have enjoyed steaks around Jackson over the years. It amazes me chefs can have as many as 25 medium rare filets ready almost simultaneously.
What in the world has happened to Georgia Blue since they built the new building? It isn't the same at all.
Georgia Blue, not surprised at all…
2:22 correction you never know what you’re eating unless you grow it yourself
I order only hot, cooked food at restaurants in hopes that the heat killed bacteria in it. Proceed at your own risk with salads and desserts.
I work in the food service industry and have probably been in 80% of the kitchens in the metro area. Front of house appearance doesn’t always correlate with back of house appearance. I know where to eat and some places I refuse to eat.
The type of restaurant you work in, and the role you play in said restaurant dictates what your wage is. Fast food is typically high schoolers, part-timers, etc. The same for most coffee shops and diners. The definition of a "living" wage depends on your cost of living, which should be based on what you can afford. Not the other way around.
I'd love to talk with 7:58 to learn which restaurants to avoid and which restaurants to enjoy.
@2:48. Tell me you don’t cook without telling me you don’t cook…
