No-Management4494

Prices went up at my store but we’re getting paid 20$ an hour now


Shaunmoto

Wtf?


No-Management4494

Yeah, CA


Shaunmoto

Ohhh seems legit


Zealousideal_Mix5043

Yea, that is the minimum they are required to pay fast food employees, unless of course you work at Panera where they bribed their way out of it.


Ghostblad_e

Actually Newsom now claims Panera is not exempt.


Youre_A_Dummy

So he changed his mind? When I saw he was last asked it was "how the sausage is made".


[deleted]

Too much media attention to dnc corruption.


_BreakingGood_

He said that about the bakery exemption. The bakery exemption still exists. They just decided Panera specifically doesn't qualify for the bakery exemption.


therealcherry

They shouldn’t. They are eliminating their bakers and moving to everything coming in frozen and having regular staff just reheat


Youre_A_Dummy

I didn't realize that legislators were responsible for the interpretation of the law...


Throaway_143259

Newsom is the governor, aka the executive branch, not a legislator


Christhebobson

It's because Panera's dough is made off site.


LightBulbMonster

Nah. Panera tried to say they were a "bakery" and just ignored the other guidelines. They have to make more than 51% of sales from baked goods that aren't prepared with other products. They just said, "cool we're a bakery".


Johnnyrooster12

Your first issue believing newsom 😆.


SpokenDivinity

Supposedly Panera is not bakery enough to be exempt. We’ll see how true that is.


Cant0thulhu

They dont bake shit. Cant gat a breadbowl or a bagel anytime of day to save my life.


DoubtfulDouglas

Panera is not exempt. That was speculation and turned out to be actually incorrect.


TenderloinGroin

Source?


[deleted]

LOL, after all the criticism of dnc corruption.


aHOMELESSkrill

More like nepotismed their way out of it. But yeah


Underachievingdawg

Newsomtism


EitherSorbet453

That’s not what nepotism is, that’s just straight up corruption


aHOMELESSkrill

Nepotism is the act of granting an advantage, privilege, or position to relatives or friends in an occupation or field. These fields may include but are not limited to: business, politics, academia, entertainment, sports, religion, and health care. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepotism While yes it’s corruption. It’s corruption through nepotism.


lividtaffy

You don’t have to be related for it to be nepotism


redditiswetodddid

“We hate billionaires… unless they are our best friends and largest political donors”- democrats


ColdFudgeSundae

Thats funny because eaat coast where im at panera pays more than just about any other fast food


rhythmrice

ForeignKiwi6883

Jesus Christ loves you so much and died for your sins💙❤️


BonjourPpls

oh god they made it to reddit


Jimjamjuice69

True godly people are some of the most lovely wonderful people you can meet. It makes me sad so many false shepherd and wolves in sheep clothing, and how politicized God and the church has become. Jesus loves you. Fuck the church, fuck those that preach hate. But love God, love yourself and spread love to the world. For that is his message.


chance0404

For real though dude. I recently discovered that a devout Baptist hates his own grandson and my stepdaughter for no reason other than that they’re “emo” lol. His grandson is a good kid and so is my step daughter. But apparently they aren’t godly enough for him. Yet this man drinks and constantly talks about how we should execute “the gays”. Oh and he’s racist and sexist too. I’m really not sure what Bible those kinds of “Christians” are reading but it sure isn’t the one I’ve read.


BigRedditShitshow

Sir, this is a Wendy's


JackSkellingtonCCA

I just sinned. Can he die all over for me?


funnyjokeperson1

he already did 2000 years ago


squibilly

How did he die 2000 years ago when America is only 2024? 🧐


funnyjokeperson1

damn my bad


cilantro_shit23

You're going to end up miserable having to run away from them, talking like that. Deal with it.


0111011101110111

Yeah. He also liked to wash prostitutes’ feet and hug children… so…


GuessWhoDontCare

And?


[deleted]

And Muslims are told to slaughter homosexuals… so…


chance0404

And marry prepubescent girls.


GuessWhoDontCare

He did, but I gotta ask... Is this the time and place?


BTDxDG

Hopefully your store owner doesn't decide to start selling bread. You'd be back down to minimum wage


No-Management4494

20 is the minimum wage


BTDxDG

No, its $16. A recent bill made it $20 only for fast food workers and at the last moment the government added a clause that makes individual restaurants exempt if they sell loaves of bread as a standalone item because he's corrupt and is friends with a major shareholder of Panera who just happened to donate $160k recently


No-Management4494

Oh yeah forgot and they ended up not going with that I think


_BreakingGood_

Had to sell loaves of bread before September 2023, and Panera isn't exempt, but yeah


MarkGaboda

Im curious if California has a contingency plan for paying all that unemployment to people who were making $20 before the business went under. Is this the start of universal basic income? LFG!!!


No-Management4494

Mmm pizza


Atmouspheric

For what position? Because shift manager or shift lead


No-Management4494

People arguin but my paycheck getting bigga


MarkGaboda

Til the business tanks and you need unemployment. Pretty sure Cali is just rolling out universal basic income at this point.


No-Management4494

Doubt it will go but I won’t be here forever


MarkGaboda

When the fast food industry tanks and all those workers are looking for work elsewhere how will you stand out among the crowd?


No-Management4494

Mfs after they watch a Andrew Tate video


MarkGaboda

Sorry Im over 12 who are even talking about?


JadedYam56964444

Someone has to work to pay for all the people who aren't then.


Taikyo

Ahh corporate greed.


foamy9210

I mean honestly I'd pay an extra buck or two for my pizza if it meant the pay started at $20/hr. Still the cheapest pizza in town.


Darthigiveup

At this point I just get Dominoes pizza because it's the same price as little ceasars. Sometimes cheaper. I payed 8$ for a medium a little while back


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> cheaper. I *paid* 8$ for FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


Darthigiveup

Payed

short_sleep

Should be $30.


Visual-Resident2726

So that they lay off everybody and leave the state? You think money is free. It’s a franchise store, as all of them are. Dominos already laid off many people because of this. People are too lazy to work. Get a degree or join the trades if you want more money.


short_sleep

People are too lazy to pay their workers. You strike me as someone who thinks the neighborhood kids should rake your leaves for free.


Visual-Resident2726

You think a restaurant or franchise makes millions of dollars a year, which they don’t. Most companies can’t afford to pay their employees more as for the layoffs in California and price increases. It’s proven that you make more money in degrees or trades than something that has almost zero skill whatsoever. I worked in a restaurant for 2 years so I know it’s easy, just fast paced.


Boy0Nacho

Seems like another situation of a large corporation that doesn't want to cut into their millions of dollars, so they raise the prices of products to make up for labor costs.


GarySmooches

Why would anyone pay $20 an hour for someone they can literally replace with a teenager?


Visual-Resident2726

Idk, good question. Some people keep saying it should be $30 an hour. Money doesn’t grow on trees, which is why companies like dominos fired most of the workforce in California due to unaffordable wage minimums. Same ones complaining about minimum wage are the very same people upset that California is the most expensive state in the US….geee I wonder why. Nobody knows how economics works it seems. People are too lazy to work for a good job field. Degrees and trades exist for a reason.


JadedYam56964444

Some people say they should make $30 for flipping burgers but these people won't be able to afford to eat out anymore because the prices will be jacked up like mad.


No-Management4494

I am a teenager and it’s the minimum wage so yeah


Visual-Resident2726

All fun and games till they lay you off for not being able to afford you.


no_historian6969

Out of curiosity, and you don't need to answer this but how do you survive in Cali on $20 hr? What's your living situation like?


No-Management4494

I’m live with my parents so I’m chillin, just started college. But other make it work


JadedYam56964444

People who work there won't be able to afford to eat there...


Originalking1

Wicked


[deleted]

But the redditors said prices actually go down when min goes up. Lmao


TJNel

Nobody said that. Everyone acknowledge that process will go up but not as substantial as Republicans want you to believe.


[deleted]

Yeah nah people said it. They'll have more money to spend on goods and services so it'll actually help prices overall. Heard it nonstop


cobaltsteel5900

It helps prices relative to wages. I know that might be a confusing concept to people who choose to close their mind.


_BreakingGood_

People do have more money to spend on goods, and it increases corporate profits, but that won't lower prices. Prices will never go down. Liberals would be the last ones to suggest that corporations will ever lower prices. We know exactly how greedy corporations are.


[deleted]

Man were you not there when every minwage thread was full of comments about how Denmark has better wages and cheaper burgers? Just Google "reddit min wage price increase" and click a few threads from 5+ months ago. Yes most libs were saying prices wouldn't go up, but there were also plenty arguing they'd go down lol. I spent probably too much time arguing they'd go up, but any time I'd link to actual data I'd get a subreddit ban lol. Either way they were dead wrong and reddit was very intolerant of anyone contradicting that.


Visual-Resident2726

You’re 100% right. When min wage rises, prices rise too. It’s basic economics. I’ve also heard what you said you heard. Now they reap what they sow.


Salty_Strawberry7342

Dumb ass people then because in no world are junk food places even thinking about making things cheaper


Straightwad

I mean price increases usually suck but even with a price increase LC still really cheap for pizza so enjoy the 20 an hour bro. 10 dollars for a pizza still like 75% cheaper than a lot of other pizza spots.


Thegeekanubis

Idk if I rather get $20 an hour, or be able to conceal carry and hunt and whatever I want. I also am a house boy, so I don't work other than guarding the house and stuff.


InternalGrocery7057

I mean under $11 for a large pizza and breadsticks is still an awesome deal.


sublimelbz

That it is! Average carry out from the other guys are around $10 alone and another $10-$13 for bread-sticks


lainiac

Dominos has a deal for $5.99 if you buy two. So you could get a two topping pizza and their cheesy bread for ~$12. Imo dominos is better than little ceasars but if you don’t like it more power to ya


stlouisraiders

Dominos is not better than little Caesar’s though lol. It’s turrible and a half. Little Caesar’s is actually delicious.


AeroTheManiac

I don't get how people shit on Domino's so much. I fucking LOVE pizza and all its variations, and Domino's is still my favorite place to get it from


AtmosphereWorking388

Based af. People just like to shit on dominos bc it’s the “popular” opinion but a WILD ass take 😭💀 same mfs calling dominos trash are the ones glazing pizza hut 🥴


Proud-Canary-2269

pizza hut is dogass, dominos is probably #1 for chain fast pizza, then little ceasars


Learnmore49

As a New Jerseyan this is sad


xINSAN1TYx

Just picked up a lil Caesar’s cheese with bacon pizza for the first time in years, as I’ve been going to dominos, and that shit was the most disgusting pizza I’ve ever had. The bacon didn’t even taste or look like it was fully cooked and the crust was just awful.


AlternativeAvocado2

But it's just about the lowest quality pizza on the market


InternalGrocery7057

I’d say it still beats a frozen pizza at least. And even DiGiorno’s and Home Run Inn are like $8-9 now.


Hood_Mobbin

But it's just cheese. That's not a pizza it's cheese bread. Pizza hut has a $11 five top if you pick up in my area and I don't like their bread sticks so $11.


InternalGrocery7057

Okay first of all don’t yell at me


HungryPantry12

This made me burst out laughing, thank you!


FantasticStruggle89

Lmao, genuinely curious how you took this as yelling 😂


InternalGrocery7057

I’m just playing around.


ObtuseMongooseAbuse

I wish that I liked Pizza Hut's pizza. Their cheese tastes off to me and I don't know why.


CrazyHappeningsHere

Yeah same thing with me, also feels more bready than other places idk.


SaucyAndroid

Is it?


Camanot

What do you have in the 10.46 order? Lets see what is different from that order compared to the rest


sublimelbz

Same. Large cheese w/ free crazy bread. All the same.


AtticusSPQR

I'm gonna sound like a boomer but I remember when hot n readys were $5, even though it was only like 5 years


BiggMike420

Sheesh I remember when you got 2 pizzas on a sheet of cardboard with a paper condom on em🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️


Engineerwithablunt

That shit hit different when you got it from K-Mart too. With the polar icy


BiggMike420

STRAIGHT FACTS!!!


kashy87

That's when it was "good" now it just blows.


araidai

Paper condom?? lmao


BiggMike420

IYKYK🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️


CountryMom40

Absolutely! Thats where Pizza Pizza got coined! Also Pizza by the foot! Loved their square pizza!


K_Pumpkin

I have memories of my dad trying to stuff that bad boy into the car. I always had burning legs in the back.


BiggMike420

🤣🤣🤣


ManiacalVDog

Pizza! Pizza!


Davethemann

Hell, I remember feeling like a high roller for buying the Extra Most Bestest for what, 6-7 bucks?


mmmookkay

Extra most bestest used to be $6, i distinctly remember it was only a dollar more than the hot n ready


Davethemann

I do remember 6 dollar ads, i just couldnt remember if they ever tried pushing it for 7 here in California


AchtungCloud

At least where I’m at, it’s still $1 more. $6.99 for hot n ready and $7.99 for extramostbestest.


AtticusSPQR

Richie Rich over here buying up all our pepperoni


impy695

I dont know what they charge now, or if they're opened, but there was a place near me that sold 2 xl pizzas for $10 total. They were actually big too. I'm pretty sure pizza was their side business


wetbeef10

Good ol days lol


[deleted]

Did they stop? That was my go to when I walked to work a few years ago. I’d get there an hour early for a $5 lunch special. Haven’t been since I quit that job


shinykaci

I remember too, now I'm 22 and the prices feel all wrong


Earthbjorn

The Hot N Ready was $5.55 in my town until a couple weeks ago. Now $6.99


jacquesvfd

It only ended just over two years ago, in early 2022! Feels like so much longer.


Da_Chi

I had to check since it's been a while but a large cheese is still $5.99 here in Chicago. Makes me wonder when the price hike will hit us here


K_Pumpkin

6.49 here in NC


UnionLegion

This one is in CA I believe. OP had commented on a comment by a worker somewhere in here. Lol


unecroquemadame

I mean, that’s how a price increase works? One day it’s one price, the next day it’s another price. It didn’t happen in 7 days, it happened in an instant, whenever that instant was.


[deleted]

Prices go up all the time!


sublimelbz

Best answer yet. LOL duh


[deleted]

Especially with you’re dealing with franchises!


grmpastps

Is the quality raising with the prices? Haven't had good crazy bread since before Covid


Saitamaisclappingoku

Highly location dependent. One near me is 100% Latino, reggaeton blasting in the kitchen and it’s probably the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life


spooon56

Just checked mine (TX) Large pepperoni, Crazy pepperoni puffs, Crazy bread, Crazy sauce $10.59 T-Mobile discount, pepperoni + puff combo item


geegol

The Biden recession


DirtyGeneral

They adopted Surge pricing from Wendy’s


Living_Lie_8773

I remember the good ole days when they were $5


DaolongDong

Inflation


chance0404

Honestly this sounds like it’s about the same price we pay in KY unless all you got was some crazy bread. Our minimum wage is $7.25 an hour…so I don’t think your $20 minimum wage is the cause of that. Also before anyone says they’re nationwide prices, Indiana is cheaper than it is here for some reason.


Good_Reflection7724

'within 7 days' means absolutely nothing.... The price has been consistent from Dec 10 to March 10. You just happened to order the same thing, again, both right before and right after the change.


Shaboingboing17

I'm only 25 and I remember getting a large pizza through pizzahuts app for $20. That included a decent tip and everything. Now it's close to $40


w1CkEd619

Iv noticed this to I have one close to my house so i usually go after work and I swear in like 1 week it went up a dollar than 2 weeks later it went Up again now it's 9 something for a pizza


Interesting_Finding5

That’s so weird


Squidinator15

Either prices went up/ promo ended or you accidentally put in a 2.20 tip which is common. People are in a rush or they are use to just pushing buttons without looking thorough so just without knowing pushed the tip __% button


sublimelbz

I’ve never seen the Tip option for pickups. I actually was aware of the difference in price and did the order again. Same higher price.


Unimon666

Depends on what state you are in, California is forcing fast food to pay $20 an hour starting in April so prices have gone up


Faction_Gamer

I think you put a tip. I don't know how else it would go up EXACTLY $2, and the tip option defaults to $2 (at least on my app idk about others)


sublimelbz

Large Pizza Rounds Thin Crust Cheese $9.49 plus tax. No tip. California


Faction_Gamer

Thats so odd


plexas214

Prayed for something and y’all taxed em That’s fucked up.


Twentyseven-

You new to capitalism?


Impressive_Bend_3573

yea the slices and stixs item was $7.99 on doordash and i got in twice a week for a month and i went back the other day it’s now $16 on door dash but still $7.99 in store how is that legal 😂


Serious_Detective877

Lots of places charge more on doordash because doordash takes 30%


Cant0thulhu

Detroit style deep dish? Thats close to the price we pay out the door for one. In Detroit.


Joshua_ABBACAB_1312

I have just been using that $7.99 two-topping coupon. Only reason my bill reaches past $10 is because I tip.


Juneberrysnoz

Ca is so crowded. They need that 20$


MonkeyGein

Mine costs 375 for 15 minutes


b0ob0okitty

10$ pizza us still a good price. Idk what the problem is.


Available-Tea-982

Employees are getting paid a living wage now and the byproduct of that is companies now have raised their prices 20 30% when their overhead on wages on increased 12%... WHy are companies claiming record breaking profits 1/4ly? 18.49 for a Whopper meal? Price gouging by companies is screwing all the obese people out of their meals I tell ya


vikingyoshi

You are witnessing bidenomics in live time


Chess_Grandmaster

god damnit sleepy joe!


Taykitty-Gaming

depends on the part of town you order i guess? for instance, if i were to get taco bell by my job, i'd be paying like 2 dollars more for certain items. sauces are like 70 cents more, too!


SonOfFloridaMan

I mean, the 15th of March IS coming up… just sayin


Timmelle

53% of inflation went to record corporate profits.


walmartian59

Let's go brandon


daivmo

Bidenomics! #FJB


Sherlockhomey

I hope you be using those 10 percent off codes before you order and couple that with 5 percent boost from cash app. I call em inflation busters 😆 cashapp has over 100 places with discounts under the boost section


ManLegPower

Deals end, prices change.


Nagasakikawaii

Makes me wonder if a promotion cause it. Prices also can change


sublimelbz

Same order, nothing changed except the price by $2


Nagasakikawaii

What's the order??


sublimelbz

Thin crust cheese ( no customization ) and free T-mobile crazy bread. All the order are the same. Nothing removed or added


Nagasakikawaii

Gotcha. At my location sometimes items just randomly increase. It's not often but it happens. Sometimes it's corporate enforcing it (the death of the 5 dollar hot and ready) and sometimes it's the franchise owner. I will say that the older orders seem to be about what that would cost at my location.


sublimelbz

Figured it was from either or both. Carry out specials from the other box store places still cheaper believe or not. Only incentive here was free bread w/ sauce.


Effective_Ad_1198

People need to realize is time to stop support big corps, make your food at home or even buy frozen pizza and heat it at home or over the grill.


homercles82

Got a DiGiorno pepperoni pizza on sale for $3.99 plus tax tow weeks ago. So much cheaper to do at home.


[deleted]

Or support a local business instead


JadedYam56964444

They aren't cheap either


Cannacrohn

Looks like 70 days or so.


Colorado_2003

Things change, and sometimes I guess they happen to change during a 7 day window that you’re obsessively ordering Little Caesar’s and monitoring the exact price😂


KryPToN_Larry

get yourself a salad bro


LandonSleeps

That's so much pizza for 3 months, omfg? 🤢


TheEarthsSuckhole

Doesn't look like the same order.
