Greedy Wendy's President Sites Wage Increase as Excuse for Replacing Workers With Kiosks.

[1monster]

2. A relative who was autistic used to work for Wendy's. They worked him

12 to 15 hours a day days and often six or seven days a week. Minimum wage was was, I think, $5.25 an hour.

I took him to buy clothing once and was appalled to find that he was wearing children's sizes eight to ten. Yes, he was small, but when I had him try on size 16 children's size, the trousers literally slid right off of him.

I weighed him and he was 84 pounds at five feet tall.

I asked him if he was eating regularly.

"Well, I try to eat at least one meal a day," he answered.

"One meal a day!" (at the most on most days).

"Well, we are so busy, they don't always have time to give me a break."

Remember, this young man is autistic and was unable to speak up for himself.

I went to the manager and read him the riot act. Things got better as to breaks, but there were other problems. Unless I had no other option, I would not work for Wendy's, no would I suggest anyone else do so either.
