    Well fast food being necessary is debatable.

        Hey so fuck McDonald’s obviously, but, and I want to be reasonable here because I’m sure we both support workers, and public schools and hate corporations, but in this case the thing they have to do to compete with McDonald’s is not pay starvation wages to their lowest paid workers right?

        I don’t think in a high cost of living state like California that 20/hour is an unreasonable ask, especially for a job that it’s hard to pull a full 40 hours with.

          Maybe I was raging too hard or something, I meant that it extra-sucks to see something as fundamentally important as public schools have to deal with market-competitive bullshit

          Service workers getting paid better is great and I hope to see this leveraged into more wins

        They aren’t competing, they just arent paying their employees enough.
