I was once a server in my younger years. I did the math, considered the work I was doing . . . and decided that I wasn’t getting a good enough guarantee on my time/effort. I quit the job and looked for the situation I wanted.
Owners are in the business of profitability. Lots and lots of considerations go into doing that. Employee are in the business of earnig money for doing work. Lots and lots of details and considerations go into that. If you are unhappy with the reality of the business you are in . . .either as an owner or an employee . . . . then move on. Neither party was guaranteed any sort of confetti parade or skip through the park to financial prosperity.
Any owner who goes into business . . . and any driver who goes into that occupation . . . who doesn’t know ‘the score’ and the expectations of their situations is going to get a thwack of reality right ion the kisser. then personal character decides how to deal with it. Make the changes one can make, and then figure out if it is worth hanging in. Plssing and moaning about realities that simply aren’t going t ochange in any meaningful way is pointless and whittles away at ones credibility and self-esteem. Do the job or don’t do the job. Work for change or don’t . . . just everyone put on their grown-up knickers and walk upright and with some sense of dignity.
“wah, the bosses are unethical theives who don’t pay me”
“wah, the government taxes too much and makes it impossible to make reasonable decisions”
“wah, those pizza guys charge too much for their pizzas . . . I want a 16” with everything for $10"
“wah, my dad won’t let me take the keys to the car 'cause I won’t do my chores”
We all got hardships in life. Drivers get paid by a lot of places using the tip credit. Don’t like it? Find a place who values your contributions more . . . I really mean this . . . you deserve more if you are worth more. Seek it out and find it. Same goes for business owners who struggle to survive. Make a decision, live with it and move on.
