Do you think we should pool our resources and become our own bosses?

Working in the restaurant industry is a death trap — It’s never too late to change either.

Working in this industry is a dead-end the moment you start. I'm not talking about chef's that go to culinary school or serving at high-end restaurants that actually pay honestly, I'm talking about serving at Applebee's, Chili's, fast food, and so forth.

Most shitty employees are a product of a shitty employer who either pays shit, treats people like shit, creates a shit work environment, or all of the above. So, stop licking company boots by giving workers bad reviews.
