Lol what?
I can't think of anything less middle-class than a Denny's?
- ramesh31 5y ago>I can't think of anything less middle-class than a Denny's? American middle class means $40k and living paycheck to paycheck.
- akomtu 5y agoThat's shrinkflation of middle class, basically. At this pace, middle class in 50s will be your own tent under a good bridge.
- chrisseaton 5y agoIt's funny - in the UK I think we'd say the middle class is getting smaller but the standard is staying the same, while in the US you look at it as the middle class stays the same size but the standard falls. Different approach to social statistics!
- brewdad 5y agoDepends on where you live. Minimum wage workers make ~$30k a year near me. Well north of that if the are tipped since min wage is the same for tipped and untipped workers. I would never consider minimum wage middle class.
- prawn 5y agoNeither. From my experience, Denny's was a fairly horrible experience. We benchmarked it as the lowest end.
- Mountain_Skies 5y agoDepends on where you live. The Denny's in the Agoura/Thousand Oaks part of metro Los Angeles were always nice upper middle class restaurants when I was there visiting. The Denny's in the southern states on the other hand tended to be much lower scale.
- brewdad 5y agoThe middle class may be visiting Denny's at 2am but if they are going there for a dinner before a movie, those people ain't middle class.
- SEJeff 5y agoWaffle House, or maybe lower class, but it’s enjoyed by a lot of middle class.
