I have to had so many conversations with people still thinking fast food is only for high school kids. It's odd. If I say how will they be open during school hours, they make up some bullshit 'get a better job.' It doesn't make snese. Most of these people don't have good jobs and are lucky to be supported in their current lifestyle. They don't see that though.

I try to push the point of 'they are paying for your time and for you to be on standby.' you don't need to be actively moving all 8 hours. Your bosses don't. I've seen so many waste of time meetings to justify their welfare jobs. It's comical. They don't produce value. They are leeches. Not all, but too many.

I hate that talking point so much (and hear it all the time from people complaining about immigrants turkin ur jerbs). The Fast-Food-Jobs-Are-Brutal-And-Pay-Shit-Wages-Because-They’re-Building-Teen-Character narrative is anti-worker bullshit that denies folk job security and a living wage.

Someone's widowed nan needs this job. The single dad living next door needs this job. A diverse workforce - that includes young people looking for a summer gig - need this job.
