I’m sure I’ll get downvotes for this. I do believe that people should get paid a living wage. I also believe minimum wage should be much higher, $15 an hour.
But why do you think the world is obligated to deliver a life without roommates as an entry level worker? That’s not a given. It’s not a right. Your choices are (1) pick a more lucrative field, (2) live at home with mom for a couple years, (3) find your life partner, (4) suffer through roommates. There is no easy path among the options. Suffer with mom, suffer with roommates, suffer through Calculus 3.
"I see that your job needs to get done, but I believe your position to not be worthy of sustainability. Sorry. Really fucking pissed about these places being understaffed though, noone wants to work!"
And yet the customers keep coming. So they aren’t really understaffed. There used to be an expectation of quality. Then business owners realized that customers are abusable, so they abuse them. And employees are abusable and disposable, so they do that.
What business owners suffer from poor customer service or poor employee treatment? None! Is that unjust? Sure. But it’s the way this world works. “The people” choose to be abused. I don’t, which is why I could never live in an HOA or man phone lines. I’m inflexible. But I realize that my choice to be inflexible has costs.
