Hire Laid Off Restaurant Workers Back First, Encourages Former Georgia Candidate For Governor Stacey Abrams
Forbes ^ | June 19, 2020 | Tara Nurin

Posted on 06/19/2020 7:07:23 AM PDT by kevcol

Potential Democratic vice presidential nominee Stacey Abrams called on the restaurant industry Thursday to do better for its employees of all backgrounds as dining establishments begin to more fully re-open following the easing of coronavirus-related lockdowns.

Does this mean they have to hire Palestinians?

Like the Seinfeld episode where Kramer returns to work at the bagel shop after a decade of being on strike?

Not to mention the neon Sus scrofa domesticus (piggy) in close proximity. :-)

This woman has never been elected to anything. She was appointed to her GA House seat and rose to be the GA House Majority Leader. But she did not run an actual campaign and win an election.

Has she considered surgery, she’s 200 pounds overweight?

But she's black and female, the two key qualifiers for the Dem VP who will be right behind an obviously failing and senile Joe Biden.

McDonalds is hiring for 260,000 part-time minimum wage jobs.

Maybe these are the jobs Americans can take while thousands of unemployed Americans are replaced by H1B Indian scum in formerly well-paying jobs? At least according to some Freepers, who think Americans are just too stupid to do white collar or STEM jobs anymore.

Fat black women say things all the time. I see no reason for this specific one to be mentioned in the media.

Seems to me that rehiring a subpar worker would be letting a crisis ‘go to waste’

Better idea would be to give her a job operating a deep fat fryer. Clueless panderblob wants to finish off businesses ruined by government diktats with more government diktats.

I hope this backfires on her when former restaurant workers on unemployment realize that the offers of rehire Abrams advocates would end their state unemployment and $600 a week federal bonuses.
