Are these the jobs Tom is bragging about? Are these the jobs Ralph says are great for America and not just Capitalist Ralph?
One more comment. Anybody who thinks Donny Boy is going to endorse any tax plan that does not favor people just like himself the most are "less intelligent" than those employees Ralph is bitching about.

My kitchen pays pretty good wages, especially for the area. But it’s entry level work. I don’t expect them to raise a family on just these wages, even though most have kids, to their detriment. I pay more than anybody else near me. This is also why they have 2nd jobs and claim so many deductions, they pay no taxes. All are legal too. We use E-verify and a 2nd service built into my payroll system.
Many are re-entering society and we are the only option they have. My kitchen starts at 10 an hour to wash dishes and my top cooks earn just under 15 with a couple in the 17 range because they have other responsibilities.
New players get a raise of a buck at 90 days and .50 cents for the next two 90 day periods as long as they come to work. After a year a dishwasher is making $12 bucks. Most are moving into cooks position by that time, if they want it. Some don’t.
I do a bunch of other stuff for them too. Next year I hope to offer a full health plan. But the budgets really tight on that. It’s touch and go and rates change every month.
