> Most restaurant employees are paid below minimum wage and expected to make up the rest in tips.
To note, only three provinces (the three most populous) have separate minimum wages for servers.
> Coming in to work while you are sick is socially accepted.
I hate this so much. I cause enough of a stink in my office about this that people in my department don't do it, but it boggles my mind that people with a lenient remote work policy and unlimited sick days would still choose to come into the office when sick if I didn't complain to HR about it.
- flyGuyOnTheSly 7y agoIt's just plain bad for business, which is the main aspect of it all that I don't understand. If one employee comes into work sick, chances are everybody who works in close proximity to them all day will be sick by the end of the week. "We are all sick because so-and-so was sick last week." is a phrase I hear constantly coming out of my significant other's mouth. She works in the food industry as well. Surely that must lower profits in some way, shape or form. Whether it's customers being wary of buying your products in the future (I personally will not go back into that cafe with the hand-coughing server for example), or your entire work force just being sluggish and high on cold medication for a week straight. I suppose it doesn't matter in the eyes of the manager because everybody is going to come into work as usual whether they are sick or not anyways. I asked her what she thought about sealing viruses inside of dark airtight packaging that is kept cool until sale, (they sell packaged chocolate) and she just assumed it was nothing to worry about.
