California minimum wage shocks fast food workers as restaurant closes: 'Only the beginning,' ex-manager warns 

Another California small business and its workers have seemingly suffered at the hands of the state’s newly enacted $20 minimum wage."It's a shock," Monica Navarro, former assistant general manager at Foster’s Freeze in Lemoore, said on "The Bottom Line" Wednesday.

 "It would have been nice to have a notice so we could go get some applications [out], I could prepare them," she continued. "The best I can do is honestly give them some references."

 When making their way to work Monday morning, Navarro and her team learned upon arrival that the restaurant owner had made the decision to close its doors for good. The owner, Loren Wright, told local Fox affiliate KMPH that this was the "last thing" they wanted to do, but knew by Friday night the business likely wouldn’t be able to absorb the wage hike and didn’t "want to ruin their Easter Sunday."

 "Two of my coworkers were actually going in to clock-in for the morning. And right after that, that's when I got a phone call that we were closing. So they found out right as they were about to clock-in for the day," Navarro recalled.

 "We had gotten a text in the group chat that we were shutting down, and I completely thought it was an April Fool's joke," one of Navarro’s colleagues also told KMPH.

 After speaking further with management and Foster’s Freeze’s owner, Navarro learned that the minimum wage law was the primary factor in the restaurant’s demise.

The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.

California!!!

The GRAVEYARD of business, where you locate in order to DIE!!!

Do these ASSHOLES have a CLUE that inside of 6 months, there will be so many UNEMPLOYED in CALIFORNIA that their UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS FUNDS will be EMPTY inside of 3 months?? Nope, they never thought about that one either.

I can ASSURE YOU that inside of a year, the entire STATE will be like a GHOST TOWN with nothing there to pay the bills.

They ASKED FOR IT, VOTED FOR IT, and now let them REAP THE "rewards" of being a LEFT WING NUT JOB IDIOT!!

They can work at Gavin Newsom's Restaurant.  And make 16 an hour.  

A restaurant partially owned by California Governor Gavin Newsom is recruiting for a $16-per-hour role, despite a new state law guaranteeing a minimum wage of $20 per hour for fast-food workers. The restaurant appears not to meet the threshold for the new minimum wage, a law that Newsom himself signed to much fanfare in September.
