“trying to deny his employees a living wage”
Its RESTAURANT work! It is not now nor has it ever been a living wage job unless you are the head cook or the manager. Its a second income job, an income between other jobs, an income while going to school job. Not an I can live on this for 50 years job.........
People are getting silly with this nonsense. They have lost all prospective thanks to clowns like Obama and Pelosi..........
From later in the article (not in the excerpt posted):
Beemer says it's only his servers who make minimum wage, adding that, with tips, they regularly take home between $20 and $35 an hour. Dishwashers and cooks start at $10 an hour and $12 an hour, respectively.
Taking home $20-$35 an hour sounds like a living wage to me...even in the Twin Cities area.
