Denver’s fast-rising minimum wage is a boon to workers, but it’s squeezing restaurants and small businesses

A Michelin star-earning restaurateur is among business owners who say fast-rising minimum wage is a heavy burden on small businesses.

Death to this asshole. This idiot sells $20 mocktails and owns like 6 restaurants.

    That is the case for Sam Armatas, vice president of Sam’s No. 3 diner, a family business with two locations

    IDK maybe don’t have Vice Presidents for a family-owned diner with two locations?

      lmao what does a VP even do for a local chain? Do places with like 6 locations even have VPs? One of the franchises where I’m at with 5 locations recently had the owners get divorced. Each of them took two of the locations and they closed the 5th. As far as I know, they’re the only “executives” employed at those places. Everyone else is on hourly wages.
