Bill's experience as one trying to survive on low wages plus tips, is what is so very wrong with the hospitality corporations. The U.S.A.'s capitalism experiment has deteriorated into a kind of "new" plantation economy of "use labor up; hire another to use up and discard." We personally know Bill and his family and respect his intelligence and his views. We wish you future success, Bill McCamley. Vi and Ron, Las Cruces

Texas labor laws are absurd. I can't believe the pay and nickel and diming were that extreme! Based on your description, I think I worked at the fast food place in that same shopping center. While our pay was a little better, the company culture's expectation on perfection to the point of absurdity plus long rush times and some less than polite customers made me look for work elsewhere. Thanks for sharing your unique perspective
