In a Nutshell, the people from SeaTac which is basically just the Seattle Airport area, lobbied for a better wage.
They deal with some of the most impatient, rude etc etc etc travelers and maybe a nice couple from time to time, but one could only imagine...
So right now only SeaTac has the ability to raise to 15.00 an hour, the neighboring cities are fighting it.
Franchised Companies like Applebees are required to be compliant in 2018, as well as Corporations.
sidenote: Franchised Companies are appealing at a Federal Level that they don't have to comply to Corporate standards, considering they are just the Franchisee...
Smaller businesses, not sure about non-profits, will have to be compliant by 2022.
The increase won't start until April of next year, but it will only be a dollar. They just have to be compliant within three years.
Smaller companies have 7 years. Again, not sure what non-profits requirements are.
If that isn't enough, Seattle was just voted 4th congested State, falling behind, LA # 1, then San Francisco, somebody else then Seattle.
However, they aren't satisfied with being 4th, so they are going for #1 status by removing one of the main highways that go into Seattle :-D Those Wacky Idea People :-P
Those "intelligent" ones tend to overthink things sometimes, the problem with highways is, that it doesn't follow the Three Finger Rule, all you need is three off ramps and three onramps ;-)
The minimum wage was higher in the 50's then it is today and they didn't have no welfare state, everybody...pulled their weight, gee, our old La Salle ran great...those were the days?
If you want your employees to give a sh*t, stop paying them sh*t, and viola...another fact!
quicktip: Learn by example. Think...Didn't you Focus??? Think, how did Google make all their money, think, how did Facebook make all that money...Selling Space for Advertisers. If you got a wall, that a lot of eyes look at, they'll Pay to Advertise hint-hint ;-) ;-)...
