It does.
$10/hour instead of $2.13. Health Care which most restaurants don't bear the cost of (outside of SF.) It also then washes through the tax system and gets more bureaucratic.
There is another benefit they will be getting in June. 1 day off per month for sick leave. When I was a waiter if we were we missed our tips. With all of the subsidies how is a restaurant supposed to make it?
Funny thing about the law that is an only in SF thing.
Average person in SF is not a family person. So, the law states that if your kid/wife gets sick you can take a sick day to take care of them. Too liberal for me ...but whatever.
SF does not limit these sick days to family members. So, if your neighbor, friend...whoever gets sick then you are allowed to take the day off to take care of them.
I have this vision of a guy going door to door looking for someone who is sick to take care of...so he can have the day off.
Who pays for all of this? I pay over $5k per year personal property tax per year for my house.
