Up until recently food workers NEVER even made minimum wage in most states that I am aware of.

It was understood that working as a waitress at a restaurant was for tips. And working at a fast food joint was a starter job for kids out of high school.

And nobody is "celebrating". Just the opposite. I can only wonder what kids are going to do for an entry level job. They no longer exist when people have to pay out $15 an hour for UNSKILLED bullshit work.
So it will now be automated. You should pat yourself on the back since you were one of the ones here on GFY cheering for a "living wage" nonsense for minimum wage.
Congrats to you Tony!
