Dirtbags Unite!
In keeping with the worker empowerment theme, [the restaurant visionary] commissioned a mural depicting Marxist revolutionary Che Guevara, Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong and other provocative leaders tackling restaurant duties.
2011-
…people are working 12- to-15-hour shifts, servers take home $200 to $300 a night in tips, the cooks are making $10 an hour and the owner takes whatever he takes, ” Cappelletti told MLive.
“We’re going to have equal pay and equal say across the board. Everyone working together.”
Uh huh.
The dishwashers are now going to make as much as the chefs and they will get equal say with how the restaurant should be run. How are they out of business???
Well, customers complained that it took 40 minutes to get a sandwich and the restaurant wasn’t always open when people came a knockin’.
PROGRESS!!
The living wage, no-tipping model required the restaurant to do a high level of sales to sustain the higher operational costs.
News of the restaurant’s closure sparked debate on Reddit, a discussion website. Business and politics aren’t an appetizing mix, wrote one person, who had this to say:
“I want to pay money for good product, without a side of indoctrination. Hopefully this sends a message: you shouldn’t try running your business on political good will alone.”

Move to Cuba or Venezuela their entire governments are failed socialist/progressive business models.
Another plus the cuban government owns all the cattle too, if you are vegan, that’s the place to be. Bon Voyage !
Another socialist experiment fails.
As Joe bidden would have said……..one word says it all……dumb ass
Problem is, normal person is not vegan.
…and normal people do not like vegans.
Meals are supposed to be stress free and enjoyable. Forcing communism down customer’s throats at the dinner table doesn’t work. In college they probably got straight ‘A’s from their leftist professors. Hopefully, McDonald’s hasn’t automated parking lot litter patrol yet.
I couldn’t stomach that lunch environment.
If they were *real* socialists, they would have murdered half the town before going bankrupt, and then fled to America to become university professors or journalists.
It’s good to see the 21st Century Motors (Ayn Rand, “Atlas Shrugged”) business model relived, with equal results.
Apparently Socialist Libtards never read anything outside of “Das Kapital”, and they never learn from history or the failed examples of others.
Gloating, gloating and gloating some more. 🙂
Did they pay $15 an hour?

“But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao,
You ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow”
These puerile halfwits should have been paying attention to Lennon instead of Lenin.
These dumb asses proved the Free Market works.
Have fun being broke, commies.

… sorry – still laughing at the phrase “Progressive Business Model”!!!
I looked it up in my old Funkin Wagners and it’s defined as “Failure”
Sounds like the Post Office … without the taxpayer coercion.
Socialism doesn’t work without force. PERIOD. They need to find a way to have the gov’t force people into their establishment – or become subsidized – like “Green” companies.

I go to local micro breweries now and then and an almost common model I’ve seen is they do not accept tips, instead they accept donations. I haven’t had the guts to ask any of the employees how much they make, but they all seem happy. The donations as listed go to help local individuals, families and organizations in need and occasionally toward something like a frisbee golf park. I’m good with that and even knowing some server isn’t going to be pissed I didn’t tip them, I always kick in a few bucks.
“I was an original investor in it,” Cummings said. “I wanted to push it to see if the model could be done.”
The little snowflakes just got an expensive lesson in capitalism.
LMAO!
Well, at least they didn’t ask for a government bailout.
