The service workers move somewhere else where they can afford to live. The ones that remain can demand a higher price for their work

- afarrell 8y ago...When they are actually working. But if you are fired from the job, you still need to pay rent for the time it takes to find a new job. Having high rent reduces your personal “runway”. This makes bootstrapped startups hard and it makes like as a lower-income worker very risky/stressful
- ndnxhs 8y agoIf you don't like the risk/stress there are plenty of other places to live. If you choose to live in SF when you can't afford it then that just not a wise decision. Eventually the prices will even out and you will just have to pay $30 for a sandwich.
