I remember Gino's (a local chain named after Gino the Bmore football player) you could go in and get 2 big *** burgers, fries, a soda and get change. I think McDonald's bought them out and a lot of the BLDs became Dunk'n Donuts run by Mister Patel.

when they ask for a tip say, "Sure...if you want to make more money get a better job"The4thReich » 18 Nov 2023, 10:19 am » wrote: ↑ My cousin's friend tells me this story.
He was given a $15 gift card for a sub place. The card was from his employer. He appreciated the card.
He goes to the sub place and orders and say and make it large. He also gets a gigantic pop and a bag of chips. The bag of chips was a joke, he says. It felt like a small handful of chips were inside the bag or some such.
The total comes up to $18.00 and some change. They then ask him if he want to round up to $19.00 for homeless of maybe Thanksgiving. He does it. Then they ask about a tip! He does that, too. So, I think by now the total is $22 or some ridiculous amount.
He was disappointed with the sub, and I guess it gave him the ****.
First, I don't know where they get off asking for a tip. They're fast food workers. Second, is this what minimum wage has come to?

That's right.

Front of the House Employees such as Servers, Busboys, Bartenders etc make up around 70% of the Staff... These are Gratuity-Based workers who are paid a smaller hourly wage, because they mostly earn Tips... You cannot Triple your labor cost of these Employees in an industry that only averages a 5% profit margin.....

I used to eat at the Kmart cafe with my Granny when I visited in the Summers and a grilled cheese, chips and a drink was like 75¢.
I remember these Cafeterias as well.... It was a decent cheap & fast lunch..... I think they had Pizza Slices that weren't to bad.RedheadedStranger » 18 Nov 2023, 12:38 pm » wrote: ↑ That Woolworth's lunch counter menu is so old they still call a hot dog a frankfurter!

The KMart Cafeteria Was based on the same Marketing model / strategy as the Woolworths Lunch Counters..... It kept you in the door & spending more... LIke you said, you'd shop --- sit down for a bite --- get your 2nd wind --- and often would do a little more shopping before you left...
First off, in this day and age, anyone who goes to sub shops is just axing for a roundup sandwich.The4thReich » 18 Nov 2023, 10:19 am » wrote: ↑ My cousin's friend tells me this story.
