Sometimes labor has very little pricing power for their labor. There are many instances of this being true. If you don’t agree with this then please read up on labor history.
Then what was the point of the comment you originally made that I responded to? It appeared to be sarcasm and saying that if management only offer $0.01 raise then get a job elsewhere. That sort of simplistic reasoning doesn’t work in all situations. Namely it doesn’t work if labor overall has very little pricing power for the cost of their services.
The sky isn’t always blue. Which is ironic given your response.
My kid was job hunting. The local coffee shop offered him $5/hr + tips. Guess where he went?
As a result, the coffee shop is now closed, whereas the dominos has my orders waiting for me in under 8 minutes.
