anything to causes irritation to the heart or vascular system produces extreme fatigue, the clot shot may not be killing them yet they may just be experiencing extreme lack of energy to work , but all the other people with office jobs making $150K a year don't notice it because they don't do any real work

teachers, nurses, government employees , government contractors will not feel the effects for sometime

I work in the food industry building technology.

This is where food businesses are going.

The food industry is changing rapidly. Lots of converging technologies coming into play to solve some big problems.
Right now the biggest is obviously labor and supply. These will get corrected over time.

In the meantime...
Be humble and kind to those who are actually showing up to a job that pays a non-living wage and you smell like toxic food when you go home.

Or...

Cook and prep at home so when you are on the road, you have good food to eat and don't go for synthetics.

and...

Neighbor-up and share tasks, bulk food and meals.

Households that claim children as dependents on their taxes get up to $250 a month for kids ages 6 to 17, and $300 a month for children under 6, depending on your income. ... Normally, the credit is worth a maximum of $2,000 for any kid under the age of 17.

Now just do a little Instacart delivery of drive some Uber and it's a wrap. Why should they work flipping greasy burgers for 8 bucks an hour. I wouldn't.

^This.

I worked 6-day weeks for 40+ years and always brought a lunch from home. Much cheaper and better for you. You can eat a good home-packed lunch every day for a week for less than $10.

Those of you strung out on everyday fast food are just lazy (and killing yourselves).

 Quoting: Darkman


In the line waiting for food*

---

Some general advice: There are two reasons why you don't want to eat at places like this...

1. If the employees are overwhelmed they are likely ignoring food safety with little/no supervision. You don't want to know what goes on without supervision.

2. Out of principle, if a business can't be professional, stop supporting them. They can go out of business and their shareholders and execs can revisit the politics that won them their fail.

It's not your responsibility as a customer to understand or solve for why their $7 burgers and $12 "value" meals can't pay enough to attract workers. None.




*Also stop eating this poison, it will literally kill you.

Re: JUST WENT to A WENDYS FOR LUNCH! THEY HAD 3 EMPLOYEES WORKING AT PEAK LUNCH TIME!!
just went to McDonalds for a bacon burger. the bacon and burger patty were cooked, totally dry, and absolutely COLD. the cheese wasn't even melted and was also cold. it's like they pulled a pre-cooked burger out of a refrigerator and said here you go!

That restaurant was recently renovated to look brand new. In the old one, I used to see burgers cooking on grills and could smell them. Now I can't see the kitchen at all and I don't smell or even hear burgers cooking!

Did McDonalds recently move to serving pre-cooked burgers now???

Is Wendy’s mandating the shots?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79543875


It is weird right? Where did everybody go?

Rent is super high and most people are driving newer cars which is another payment on top of full coverage insurance.

Utilities and having the latest I-phone also add on.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80796882


I imagine it has something to do with the fact that most fast food places that I have been too force their workers to mask up all the damn time.

And who the fuck would want to go to work in a mask for what 12 an hour?

Fuck that.

Because if you are one person living alone making a single burger and making sure all the other ingredients you bought for the burger stay fresh or are used is a bit difficult.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79543875


I'm sorry... You can't keep frozen hamburger patties in the freezer?

Don't have an onion in the veggie drawer? Ketchup?

Not that difficult...

I work from home, and pop the BBQ on when I want a burger.
 Quoting: Viktor Vaughn


Couldn't have said it better myself.

I usually get grass fed ground beef and divide it into 4 and mold my own burger patties. I leave one out to grill and but the other 3 in individual zip lock bags into the freezer. When I want a burger later in the week, I pull one out and put it in a bowl of water. Let it sit in the bag for 10 minutes and it's thawed. Then on to the grill.

Yeah..I guess it takes more time/work but nothing better than making your own burger with your own toppings done RIGHT.

I feel bad for the worker, but I had to laugh at the stupid woman's scream. 1rof1

Every fast food place in my area is short handed & have hiring signs out. Even the gas station I go to have the doors locked sometimes because they only have one employee there. They can't keep help.
