Canada is the three nations of people loyal to the Crown: Loyalists, French and Indians.

That we have failed to live up to the promise of our country does not mean we are not a country.

Americans have denied French and Indian claims to territoriality since they landed on the continent, and launched two invasions of Canada to dispute to sovereignty of HRH. Still, after Montreal, Queenston Heights, Chrysler’s Farm and Lundy’s Lane, every American should know by now that the national idea of Canada is one that has (had) resonance.

By "normal" pay I mean what employers typically pay people, not what they actually SHOULD be paid. I've gotten some people to wake up about how bad things are just by framing bad things as normal.

That's like $2 of beef, $0.50 of bun, and maybe $1.50 between the veggies/pineapple and the cheese slice if we're being honest. So $4 for that monstrosity. If you factor in that it probably took the cook in the back 5 minutes at most to actually make and maybe he makes $20/hr, that's another $1.70 or so. Now you're up to a whopp(er)ing $5.70 for that piece of poo poo.

Hope you're happy you just gave away $10 to the corporate assclowns!

while, yes, you're broadly correct that restaurant food is wildly overpriced for what it takes to make it, the profit margin on that burg is closer to the 10 cent end of the spectrum than the 10 dollar end

the vast majority of restaurants go down in flames because the owners think they can profit $10/burger, find out that they're possibly even losing money per plate of food, then are driven insane trying to micromanage and nickel&dime everything and drive away all their good/adequate workers before they get busted for 40 health code violations

There's a couple a ways that this can happen. You are not going to become evil you already are, that's why they're paying for your MBA

I had an ex who had this exact same thing happen to her couple of years ago. She now work solely as a therapist for rich white household wives and their children. Like you know those op-ed columnists who would write some absolutely hot take, and you wonder how could they possibly sleep at night? They have those therapists who help sooth and calm the contractions in their minds.
