Give people a wage they can live with, they'll happily come to work. The reason why many are salty about this kind of measure, is that it'll raise the bar of how little you can get away with paying someone before losing them. That's at the least the idea I'm getting from this all.
@MethDozer fortunately I have a 20-25 minute drive these days when I'm in the office. You are correct about the commute though. Did that for too many years
@ron122 The problem. Is most likely they all thought their job was waiting for them or would he and got woken up to you got to work at Subway now. But oh well they're paying $18 hour so quit complaining you been demoted.
The Black Plague ensured better wages in Europe because there were fewer qualified people who had to make a fair living, so employers were forced to raise wages to meet demand.
