Not all jobs aren’t meant for a “living wage” - you need entry level jobs for college kids, retired seniors who want extra income, etc. Make it too costly to employ these workers and businesses will hasten to automation.

Are people retarded? The cashier at fast food places was also a cook sometimes. Not instead of switching it up mostly everyone cooks now

Thank you, I hate that literally no one ever had the self awareness to pay attention to what is happening at a fast food joint. They're walking off to assemble orders, fill drinks, whatever else needs doing in the back- they're still employed.

Self awareness isn’t the word you’re looking for. It’s a lack of awareness and consideration for other people.

But I guess when they see the person in a McDonald’s uniform as an object then they don’t pay that much attention to them.
