The CEO of Cali’s pizza shit is Aaron Powell and he reportedly gets 2-5 million USD in annual compensation package.
I wonder when people are finally going to stand up to this bullshit…
“Available for delivery exclusively through Uber Eats” or some equivalent bullshit. Are Uber/lyft/GrubHub/postmates/etc drivers guaranteed a minimum wage in accordance to the new law, or are they “contractors” with no protection?
IIRC, The state passed a law requiring they be treated as employees, Uber and Lyft then spent hundreds of millions astroturfing the repeal campaign and got Californians to approve the repeal which exempts a narrow group of orgs including rideshare companies. So, Californians who spent billions on covering unemployment for folks who were contractors, are again subsidizing corporate profits.
Just a reminder: correcting a stagnant minimum wage (slightly) didn’t do this, Corporate Greed did this. Pizza Hut had almost 12 billion dollars in revenue last year. Remember that when your cold pizza is delivered by wage-slaves working for tips…
I just hope Cali produces some legislation that forces Uber, etc to treat the drivers like employees too.
