USA question Can anyone who works in the restaurant industry confirm this?! I have been trying to leave them good tips but I always pay with card online but I keep hearing more things about how the employees don’t get it, but corporate does?!
A business owner's perspective by r/Intaxerror Edit: added bold for my comments I'm already judging. No shame. I don't buy, I don't believe, and I never will, that increasing minimum wage is the solution to the problem, This tells me you've never seriosuly considered our argument, and you will never listen and try to understand in the future. and believe me, I am with you guys, there is a problem that needs an immediate solution. Yup, that people cannot survive off their wages. Just stating what I think you're implying. Consider that wage is an arbitrary number, no different than price, it's malleable and it often inappropriately assigns the incorrect value to a commodity.

It's now in the ” this must be an actual form of torture used in prison camps that administration found out about” category. Without going into more details because I don't feel safe doing that on a public forum, I will say that they are controlling our bathroom breaks and using loud siren- like noises played from a speaker( at top volume) from a megaphone system to get our attention before making announcements on the intercom to make sure we're paying attention. The intercom system is faulty to begin with so often we will have feedback…
Advice: Low balled on compensation
I’ve been at my current job for 2 years. I started out as an analyst and quickly got promoted within 4 months to be a reviewer of analyst work. The duties changed a lot and I took on many special projects and additional responsibilities. I did not get a raise after my first year despite the change in role. My employer argued that I was not eligible since I did not get a rank change (rank titles are different from role titles — rank titles are uniform across the company and role titles are unique to teams).

I have told my manager I am disappointed in the decision and would like to further…
