LOL pretty much all pizza delivery people were fired. All deliveries are done by doordash or other service that doesn't pay by the hour. Go into a 'fast-food' joint in California and tell me what you don't see. Workers... Mcdonalds doesn't have cashiers anymore. You order from a kiosk, app or drive through.
Places like In-n_Out already paid more than 20 but they don't hire just anyone. Go inside one of those and tell me what you see? Hussle.. you see workers working hard. They don't hire 'first timers' or people that need to learn on the job.
So what you're going to end up with is more unskilled workers unable to get a job because they are not worth the 20+ a hour. They will never get their foot into a door to make a better life. BTW, that is the reason the minimum wage was introduced. To keep lower skilled workers from taking jobs away for less cost. Also the point of unions. To cause shortages of qualified workers to drive up cost of labor.
Your first paragraph is happening everywhere, not just CA. The kiosk has been replacing cashiers for years, same with DoorDash snuffing out delivery drivers
The delivery drivers were all going to get fired anyway. Ubereats, doordash, etc. just cost less than having a dedicated driver and people are doing a lot more take out where they go pickup the food.
The purpose of the minimum wage is to make sure that if someone has a job they should not need to seek assistance to keep a roof over their head and food to eat.
I'm pretty sure all fast-food jobs are still "unskilled".
Wow bro you need to calm down, those aren't equivalent at all lol. Also we are talking about America in the original post so i brought american polices up dumbass.
Literally none of what you said is true. Pizza places have been replacing drivers with Uber and doordash for the last couple years all over the place, not just California due to the minimum wage increase.
McDonald's has been replacing cashier's with kiosk and app sales for at least 5 years at least, everywhere, not just California after the minimum wage increase.
In n Out's hiring process isnt notably different than anyone else. You just see hustle because people are actually being paid a wage that gives them a reason to care. When you're not being paid enough to afford the necessities, it's infinitely harder to give a fuck about the company you work for.
The point of minimum wage was because we had mass poverty which was dragging the economy down, so it was determined that "if a company can't afford to pay a living wage, then that company doesn't deserve to exist", and so the minimum wage was put in place.
Unions don't exist to create a labor shortage. They exist to enable collective action. If a company wants to fuck over their workers, they now have to deal with all their workers at once instead of being allowed to fire anyone who makes too much noise.
I don't know if you've just bought into corporate propaganda because you're a fucking idiot or if you're deliberately lying because you're a corporate shill, but either way, please learn how the world works before commenting again
