Also the restaurant association of America can suck me.

Working on bringing back 1919, since..... 1919.

"For the last 100 years, the NRA has lobbied consistently to maintain the subminimum wage for tipped workers, and to maintain the lowest possible minimum wage for all other restaurant workers."

Child labor ✅
Wage slavery ✅
Abolish benefits ✅
Monopoly on their bullshit certifications ✅

Anyway, abolish tipping.

Pay staff and cooks especially living wages.... maybe toss in profit sharing.

Anyway, I only cook at home now.

People don't deserve my energy anymore.
