many businesses nowaday want $15 per hour seem attractive. This is already law in NYC, at least for food workers. Taking credit for what it is forced to do, pay that rate. And Amazon also screwing their employees by keeping the union out. Do these Amazon delivery drivers really know how much Fedex and gang is paying?
Please , dont talk shh about the illegals. They kept working thru out this pandemic, and haven't stopped. Theses resturaunt cant find the "white actor" type of waitstaff, refusing to hire from the back of house. Their is not a shortage of delivery guys, cooks, dishwashers, deli clerk, car wash guy, etc....
When Amazon say they hiring 50,000 workers they about fire 25,000 workers they do it meet quarterly quotas. They want unions out they want a lot of control if complain about working conditions you gone.
Unemployment doesn't pay enough to pay rent or a mortgage in most places, let alone food and utilities. If restaurant workers go back to work, how will they get their tip money that they rely on? Restaurants are not yet at 100% capacity AND offices are not full. Even when the cap limits are lifted at the restaurants, why would someone want to work the lunch shift if most of the office people are working from home? And I still think there are too many people unwilling to sit in crowded restaurants not knowing who is/is not vaccinated. So I believe tips will be hard to come by for the foreseeable future.
Notice also that restaurants are somehow coming up with extra money in the form of sign-on bonuses and increased hourly pay just to entice people to work. If I make more money sitting at home then grinding at work, unemployment is not the problem...the compensation is the problem.

Thank you!!
Pay a living wage. But since we have open borders, there is always someone willing to work for a slave wage.

The restaurant capacity is misleading as a percentage ..what the restaurant capacity is and and what Ibc seating capacity is with tables is two different things .
Many because of table layout can’t hold anymore at 50% than 100%.
We have been to restaurants to pick up and see lines waiting to get in as every seat is filled
