Minimum wage hike already backfiring
-
In Japan tipping is a no no, and the sales/wait staff people are super polite. Wages for these jobs are not high.
In my experience everyone in Japan, or at least from Japan, is polite. Unlike East Cleveland...

Perhaps those people haven't all been taught that they're precious flowers whose violent and aggressive outbursts are just because they aren't being challenged enough.

Literally everyone against this ridiculous notion of doubling the minimum wage tried to tell it's deluded supporters this but no one wanted to listen

the solutions of which for instance - can be shown in the brief moment of time last spring when the dropping fuel prices at the pump
gave people more money to spend elsewhere.
seems like the liberal minds think the money tap works best by taking it from tax revenue and giving it out
without helping the businesses do what they can do best by creating the revenue in the first place.
this result was predicted. thanks obama

I meant more about the tipping, but yeah usually very friendly. Only exception being the chinese - it's not like they're rude, if you understand the situation. For them it's about volume, so if you're taking 10 minutes to make up your mind they'll give you some shit.

Yes, that post should have been a response to Steves.

Not to be bickersome but even though your commission percent is set the Commission salesmen might be happy enough to sell you a basic order of widgets while the enterprising fellow might try to boost that a few percent or entice you to buy a couple orders of specially made washers for those widgets.
I worked for a short time as a commission salesman any music shop.
One example there was that you didn't get any commission on accessories like pics or strings or guitar straps etc. Therefore nobody bothered to try to add those things on to a sale and strings, for example, are a relatively high profit sale as a percentage of cost. I personally didn't like the Commission system but some guys really hustled. They would keep a log book of every customer that they spoke to and about what. One reason for that is that customer came in during the salesman's day off he could show the manager it was his regular customer. I never bothered and never liked the hard sell so I'm assuming that guy was a better salesman than me.
Also it's becoming more and more prevalent over here that your meals are brought by food runners rather than your actual server. For what it's worth.

Great selection.Not to be bickersome but even though your commission percent is set the Commission salesmen might be happy enough to sell you a basic order of widgets while the enterprising fellow might try to boost that a few percent or entice you to buy a couple orders of specially made washers for those widgets.

So you would also eliminate all commission sales positions? Think that would work well? No more quarters for production either? No more bonuses?

Commission is not the same as tips. Our sales team doesn't secure its 5% commission on a $1m deal, then the buyer chucks in an extra $200k because the sales guy was super smiley.
I'd like to see that if nobody tips - which is largely out of the control of the waiter - the waiter still can afford to eat and stuff.

I'm not in sales directly, though I have done the odd demo. I work for a financial services/software company.

Umm duh.

Sounds fine. Jobs in manufacturing, research, development, engineering, etc

Ok some minimum wage employees might be able to eventually take jobs in manufacturing, development and engineering but let's get real. The majority of adult mcdonalds workers would not have been able to keep their shit together enough to successfully enter the actual work force.
-
Oh, no. I didn't mean they were moving from one to another. I was just saying some of those jobs were being created
-
What I'm getting at is that you're permanently putting those people out of one of their few suitable job opportunities.

Although I'd rather have my fast food prepared by a robot than by a low class person to be honest.

Natural evolution of things. I'm sure our country has had similar things happen in the past due to technology
We just need to make the education and training they need more easily available

A lot of them are just unfit and no amount of tech school will fix that.

Just because the education and training is available, doesn't mean people have the ability to use it and understand it. Or the want and desire to better themselves
