(11,464 posts)Let's look at this calmly and without the mob justice for a second
Let's say everybody boycotts & stops going to Applebee's nationwide.
Applebee's go out business
There are probably 50,000 to 100,000 REGULAR people working at Applebee's nationwide, who knows
So now there are 100,000 people unemployed because of another
BURN THEM DOWN without thinking about the day after
Wouldn't a different type of protest be better?
How about everyone go to Applebee's AND DON'T ORDER a dessert or an appetizer or something from the bar(in those that have bars).
SO let's say your normal per person bill is $25.00 and you would tip 5 bucks
Why not have the bill be $15 and tip 15 bucks directly to the server in cash
either way you are paying $30.00. But this way the server gets 10 bucks extra.
And Applebee's themselves loses $10 bucks a person.
Then tell people online that you did it, and post your own receipts.(with confidential info crossed out of course).
better yet
The Priest and the Waitress and an Applebees representative should go to the White House and have a sit down and thrash things out with President Obama.
but let's not put all the workers out on the streets by a mob like boycott vengence when there are better ways to directly make a point to Applebee's with.
