$12 per hour = works like two people
And yet only gets paid 1.25x what the minimum wage person does
Works like 2 people - for $12. Sounds about right what real wages he would like to pay.
how about I crack your head open and then I'M the owner?
HOW ABOUT THAT JACK

If you work like two people, shouldn't you be paid at least double minimum wage?

So the owner makes $14/hr then, neat.
Most small businesses fail. With a sign as hostile as that, they’re not going anywhere in the future. Also I was a cashier at target and made $17.50, who tf do they think they’re gonna attract
15$ outperform the owner. so why the owner is payed more than 15$ with taht logic?
They're taking a risk!
The risk
They might have to work for a living
wow wow slow down taht list is to much for me!

"One person working makes a minimum of 9$/hr. One person doing the work of two people makes $12/hr. How much money is this dipshit stealing from his employees every hour?"
~$98. It's an estimate but minimum wage work in places like coffee shops is up there among jobs that pay lowest per labour value.

Nonzero chance this dipshit pays out the nose to some corporate landlord, barely breaks even, and thinks short-changing wages will make up the difference.
Now imagine reading this sign while already working at this place for minimum wage.
Imagine being the minimum wage worker assigned by the boss to write this shit
Probably made by the bosses point person who is a minimum wage worker that considers themself a temporarily embarrassed $15/h bootlicker
Damn. You know that’s how it went down too.
You don't even unlock "gets outta bed" until at least $23
This is quite radicalizing 👍
brings positivity to the environment
Right, the person who made this passive aggressive sign definitely cares about cultivating a non-toxic work environment

BRINGS ZERO DRAMA
I've seen guild invitations claiming to be "ZERO DRAMA" in numerous online games.
When that's said, the "drama" comes from inside the house and was already there.
Great general rule about people (or in this case, employers) - if they state something that should be a given when no one asked, the opposite is true.
It's like shopping for sausages and seeing a label that says "100% Pork NO RAT MEAT".

It also immediately tells you that you're going to see some slurs in guild chat.
Worked at a warehouse for a small family owned business once and now I work at an Amazon warehouse and it's like fucking night and day. At least Amazon managers have no like personal investment in the goings on really, everything is just numbers and you're just one cog out of many so its easy to avoid scrutiny. If a small business tyrant decides they don't like you? Good fucking luck.
Small business i used to work at tried to not pay me for 20 hours worth of work. Thankfully I had been recording the hours I worked because I like recording stuff and could show them the pics I took.
Later they started using these wipes I had allergic reactions to, then lied about using them when I was very clearly having an allergic reaction, and then stopped giving me hours after I sent them a picture of a thing my allergist gave me that said I'm allergic to an ingredient in those wipes.
I worked for a gigantic company with sites all over the world and I offhandedly told someone im allergic to the hand soap so I bring my own. That same day the person who coordinates supplies for all the sites in my part of state emailed me about switching the my site to a different soap that I can tolerate.
Fuck that company too (ceo is a nepo baby) but small businesses commit the majority of wage theft and their owners are more likely to breathe down your neck

For all the Graeberian waste that goes on in corporate businesses, I’ll take being micromanaged by a yes man middle manager over being micromanaged by the company’s owner any day. I worked in a small-to-medium sized business that was growing really quickly and the owner just got more deranged as time went on. Because he insisted that, despite delegating responsibilities to people all over the company, he needed to be the jack of all trades with his eyes in every department. He basically wanted to avoid being out of touch and wanted to make sure he was holding his managers responsible. He even had several instances where he let go of asshole managers who were treating their workers like dirt. He was essentially a good guy who meant well. But he was also a tyrant by nature of his incompetence. He was an awful programmer. He was an awful video editor. He was an awful logistics technician. He was awful at tech support. He was excellent with clients. But his obsession with being the Everyman made sure he drove himself crazy focusing on all the stuff he was shitty at. It made him stressed out and volatile when there was no need for it. I was under constant stress that he might come around at any moment and be having a bad day and decide I was doing my job wrong and needed to be fired. Never again with that shit.
I have a similar experience while looking for a place to rent. A few private landlords said "no foreigners", one refused to believe my female S.O. made median wage for a man in our city and demanded to see her tax documents, and one tried inserting a clause into the lease saying I'm not allowed to cook "ethnic foods" (lmao).
At that point even the realtor was shocked at how shitty these people were being and referred me to a big corporate landlord. They asked to see my ID, my pay slips, and then handed me their standard terms and conditions. I moved in that week.
I am in no way defending any landlord ever, but sometimes being just another number can work to your advantage. Numbers don't have skin color or nationality or gender.
I never thought I'd see Amazon as a comparatively better employer.
A lot of people welcomed big box stores and conglomerates into their neighborhoods, and not just for the lower prices.
Today I learned that 9 X 2 = 12
Today's word of the day is Arson. To use it you might say, "Bro I did some arson when I used my flint and steel to burn down that coffee shop in minecraft."
Sorry to post something definitely unrelated to the OP topic, just wanted to let everyone know.
"nobody wants to work anymore"
Chuds will try to paint workers who want better pay as being entitled, but good lord small business owners are the most entitled fucks.
