California Pizza Places Laying Off ALL Delivery Drivers Due To New Law

[candycorn]

Are you an imbecile?

You're the one making the ridiculous allegations.

Are you on drugs?

I delivered pizza's many years ago. The place I worked for is still in business. I drove their truck. Back then Domino's had their own vehicles also (Honda Civics).

The place I drove for still manages to stay in business providing delivery drivers with trucks to deliver their pizza's.

Places like Pizza Hut expects the employee's to use their own vehicles. It means the employee is expected to cover the costs involved. Gas, insurance, maintenance.

In places like California that should be at least $20 an hour.

Yep that is a very good point. Jobs like that just wear your vehicle down and you pay for gas.

So, you support the $20 minimum wage in California then, since you care.

No…I’m a market guy…govt needs to keep its nose out of running a business at that level.

That’s between the employer, and employee..

As long as people want delivery there will be jobs at the food delivery services that I had mentioned. That is, until drones take over the task.

There is elasticity of demand depending upon the cost of the pizza. There will be time when the cost will be more than most people are willing to pay.

You are correct with the idea about the drones. If the Liberals artifically drive up the labor cost then the industry will look at other ways to deliver the product. Just look at what they are doing in the fast food industry.

You'd bitch if they went on strike also.

 

[initforme]

If a place wants someone to deliver they must supply them with a company vehicle no?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Going back to Cali? I dont think so…

The government should back wage theft by employers.

 

[Independent thinker]

Pizza Hut? Are they still in business? I guess not anymore, if they can’t get anyone to work for them and how is this ALL delivery drivers?

Ummmmmmmmmmm, there were other pizza places mentioned. And, we are talking about California, not other states.

 

[hadit]

I find it interesting when people are fine with workers losing jobs just because they don't like the product the company produces.

Wrong, the article only mentions Pizza Hut laying anyone off.

Way to go California! What a shithole state. Expect tax revenues to fall even further and prices to increase further, just what hard working Californians need.

California Pizza Hut operators laying off all delivery drivers

Two large Pizza Hut operators in California are laying off all their delivery drivers ahead of a new state law that raises the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour, Business Insider reports. The layoffs impact hundreds of Pizza Hut locations across the state including Los Angeles...

LOL! Good. If any of those employees voted for Eric Garcetti, Gavin Newsom, or Joe Biden, they deserve this.

Pizza Hut was already dying. Franchises have been closing everywhere.

Why not $100 an hour? Then everyone would be rich!

lol

Link?

Their website indicates over 19,000 franchises worldwide, an increase over 2 years ago.

Yep that is a very good point. Jobs like that just wear your vehicle down and you pay for gas.

There is a federal tax credit of 65.5 cents per mile that is supposed to cover that. The employer shouldn't be charged for gasoline, wear and tear or insurance for the time the vehicle isn't used for their business.

The $20 is for all workers, not just delivery drivers. They have to cut somewhere.

I think getting rid of low paying jobs is a good thing, they will eventually be replaced by higher paying jobs. Take the money from the rich and redistribute it to cover the cost of the laid off workers wages, healthcare, and rent till those laid off workers find better paying jobs.

You are talking about socialism. Americans don't want socialism.
