$30/hr is more than most people at entry-level jobs with a degree!

“We’re down to $30/hr!” Must be rough.

Hire Butters. He did real well in the ice cream shop and weiner stand!

This is a perfect example of how explorative tipping is to customers. The fact that these people would rather get tips then make 30 an hour (which is really good not just for the food industry but for lots of places) tells me they are used to customers paying there monthly wages at more then 30 an hour. The servers especially cry because they don't make enough as base pay they cry when they get a 30 an hour base pay there is no pleasing these complainers. I would say let them go back to a tiny base pay with tips and watch how little they earn because the restaurant is working on a ticket system where you pay a ticket price not a price at the end of the meal with all the things your ordered. This is insane.

Wow 😂😂 $30 an hr even with part time hrs is great pay 🤯

[coreymillia]

So $30 an hour without tips is worse than $4 an hour with tips. What they're saying is there is no solution to being a server, your life is going to suck until the end.

I spent months applying for a job at casa bonita as soon as positions opened up. I've been a huge fan of both south park and casa bonita since I was a kid and knew I wanted to work there as soon as I heard matt and trey bought the place and it wasnt closing down anymore. I applied for 4 different positions that had openings. All of which I have experience for since I've been working in food service since I was 16. I never got a single email or call back from anyone. I even re-applied several times before positions closed. Not a single call or email back. As stupid as it sounds, this would have literally been my dream job.

The pay is around the 30 dollar range but I would have been happy working for minimum wage. It makes me so angry and sad that these people got my dream job and are acting like this. This is what happens when you ignore hard workers like me who were actually passionate about working for matt and trey and instead hire a bunch of entitled scum who want a bigger paycheck. I guarantee you I could do whatever their job is 10 times better than them. But I'll never be given a chance.

American servers: "Pay us a liveable wage!"
*Gets offered a more than liveable wage*
American servers: "F*** no! I can make more money off the tips I hate having to rely on!"

Good luck finding a job where you can make anywhere near $30/hour for the type of job.

This is just fodder for another South Park episode

How are they not able to pay their bills on $30 an hour? They are either living well above their means, or frivolously spending their money on stupid things. Let these people walk, and get people in there that appreciate that high of pay. I guarantee these greedy people will come crawling back begging for 30 when they see what most jobs offer, especially in the food industry.

[monicat]

these ppl think rich are greedy? they should hear themselves. $30/hr is gold. do they really think they should be paid more for their type of work? unless youre jumping off that cliff, be happy with your pay

[vesstig]

These people are really losing their minds if thats a low wage to them, Tips can be inconsistent and a stable wage is perfect for anyone.

[MsBrendalina]

They think they deserve $30 per hour plus tips for delivering sopapillas?. 😂

[Dada-]

Give them about Tree Fitty!!! Shame... I thought that was 'MERICA 🤣

[troystubby]

I work there now. Its awesome. Must been her eyebrows 😂

[slickbelge]

Not happy with 30 an hour what world do they live in

[kris]

Lmao Matt and Trey are gluttons for punishment. They already had one of the most stressful shows to produce on television. And now ventured into one of the most stressful types of business out there: restaurant ownership 😂

[Jordancrew]

$30?!?! They are already paid too much!

[mikeh]

They should just fire them and get new employees
