Entire staffs quit at Sonic drive-ins in Ohio over pay-cut talk

The corporate takeover of 10 Sonic drive-ins around the Columbus, Ohio, area got off to a bumpy start after workers at three of the hamburger chain's restaurants walked off the job en masse and caused a local stir with their parting sentiments.

"Due to terrible management the whole store has quit," reads an expletive-laced goodbye note taped to a window of the Sonic restaurant in Circleville, where another handwritten sign read, "Thank you, next,"...

I guess you do not want to talk about this part

"Entitled people are the CoC, globalist and Free Traitors™ that want to set wages by flooding the USA with cheap labor thru both legal and illegal immigration and then have the nerve to complain about the minimum wage."

Wonder what the two guys in the car in the commercial get paid? Everyone should be paid whether they work or not, and a living wage as well!

OR they're people not complaining about their environment and are working using the opportunities given to everyone in the United States.

We used to joke about this thing back in my McD days. What would happen if we all walked out. We figured they’d borrow folks from other stores, hire the first 30 applicants through the door and be back to normal the next day.

people not complaining about their environment

Oh that's a new one. People (patriots) they have had enough of the flood of immigrants into the USA are now "complaining about their environment". You're a real winner pal.

Face it you no longer fit into a nationalist, blue collar, white collar wage earner, normal American party i.e, GOP post Trump election. You should join your globalist friends in the Democrat party.

No doubt, I mean seriously, how hard is it to drop a fish sandwich and coffee into a bag for an order for 2 Big Macs and fries?

Look newb, I've provided more jobs and contribute more to a free economy more than you hope to do so complaining about your shortcomings keeping you down.

Try contributing rather than living off welfare like the minimum wage.

I see reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit still. You completely missed (or outright ignored) my point.

Columbus is growing and has been for over a decade. There are far more job openings than people to fill them. If people are comfortable in their current jobs they won’t be looking to take new ones. There are quite a few skilled labor jobs going unfilled despite those hiring hiking up the wage rates to try to attract more people.

I’m sure you won’t read this post either.

[central_va]

I read your stupid insipid ignorant post. If there is labor issue then advertise for these position nationwide. Or better yet pay more. If those jobs were paying $40.00/hr instead of minimum wage would they get people? Hell yes. So the trick is to find the price point between minimum wage and $40.00/hr. IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.

There is no such thing as a labor shortage, what there is in this case is a wage shortage. YOU CAN'T SET THE PRICE OF LABOR. That's what communists do.

I am almost retired and probably make what you would call a very nice wage. But I not a myopic idiot and I actually care about the USA I am leaving for my children.

I bet you didn’t notice that this article was posted under ‘humor’

These guys fell for a rumor and quit based on a rumor without even checking out the rumor - which wasn’t true. Now you got 30 or 50 people with egg on their face, maybe hoping that their managers will hire them back and pretend it didn’t happen. That’s funny. HaHa funny.

And has nothing to do with ‘attacking’ any ‘hated minimum wage workers’.

The difference is, I'm doing something about you, while you complain about your environment. AOC is more your style.

Dollar Tree is building a million sq. foot DC closer to Washington CH because they can’t find workers in Groveport or Grove City.

A Ford Truck costs $55,000 new. That’s a stupid price, and ultimately unsustainable.
True, and they are junk.
