Worked 16 years for an owner-operator in Southern Cal. Every time min wage was increased, the number of hour permitted was limited so that total payroll remained the same. So sure we might not have had layoffs, but we definitely had less people working. This behavior was consistent with all the franchisees in So Cal.
