    I mean, the kids aren’t capable of doing actual work that would actually be profitable for the company. They’re going to slow the entire restaurant way down and probably break things. Honestly this sounds like a bad idea for the restaurant. Imagine the pure fucking chaos if all 30 kids are five years old.

        I’d never send my kids there, for sure. Although $50 to watch and feed my kid for a whole day does sound tempting.

        The increase in child labour in America does seem concerning. I’m not American so I haven’t heard too much but I did hear there are some 14 year olds packing meat? Meat processing plants are awful places to work for anyone but especially kids.

      There’s a cynical humor in imagining some poor fast food employees trying to be like “Okay settle down, children, we’re gonna show yo–Hey put that down, okay quiet down now PLEASE!” , trying not to lose their minds to a bunch of sugared-up “Braedens” and “McKeinLeighs” who are unaccustomed to listening to anybody that’s not living in their iPads. 😂
