...mayor of San Francisco as it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of California as it transforms itself into Cinderland...’s (D) $20 minimum wage law, which went into effect in April.
Lawrence Cheng, whose family owns several Wendy’s restaurants in southern California, has had to fill in behind the register to make up for the dramatic cuts, he told the News Agency that Dare Not be Named.
While he used to have "nearly a dozen employees" working the afternoon shift at his Fountain Valley location, he is reportedly down to just seven per shift.
"We kind of just cut where we can," Cheng told the outlet. "I schedule one less person, and then I come in for that time that I didn’t schedule and I work that hour."
Before Newsom’s mandate, he was paying his 250 workers $16 an hour. Now, the only way he can keep up with paying them $20 is to simply have them work fewer hours.
Cheng also said he had to raise menu prices by about 8 percent three months before the law went into effect to offset the increased costs.
