Our beloved hybrid schedule/rotation between all of team mates is now being reduced to one day. And everyone thinks our comments about leaving because of this are jokes… We'll see who's laughing in a few weeks/months.
We, the undersigned, demand the following immediate changes to the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Fair Minimum Wage Act, and other related laws and regulations: 1) An immediate increase in the minimum wage to $20/hour for all employees, without exception for age, experience, training status, tipping expectations, or any other reason. 2) An immediate end to the “Tipped Credit Against Minimum Wage,” also know as a tipped wage offset.
