New York City restaurants, feeling the pinch of trying to make ends meet, are slashing their staff after a state law that took effect at the end of 2018 is mandating restaurants with 11 or more workers to pay a $15 an hour minimum wage.
The legal minimum wage in New York City rose from $13 to $15 on December 31, 2018, giving workers a temporary hourly raise while forcing employers to cut those employees’ hours to make ends meet.
The wage hike is the city’s third since December 31, 2016, when the city’s minimum wage rose to $11 an hour.

Wow, coming soon, $40.00 for a cheeseburger and fries at McDonalds, NYC.
Good news - you're making $15/hr!
Bad news - You're not getting any hours!
If I find any restaurant that pays their wait staff $15 per hour I will refuse to tip.
Laugh now cry later remember Maryland wants to make min wage $15/hr - how many small businesses will do the exact same thing here?
This just shows you how stupid you people are... Believe everything your told, yes I want I want I want, never thinking of where will it come from!!!! So now you can lose your job for that 15 bucks an hour wage, how do you like that????
Guess what, I TOLD YOU SO YET AGAIN and again and again... Maybe your obtuse ass will start to listen to us who actual know better and live in reality not some fair tale land...
Dems really thought this one out, eh?
Bad news your making 15/hour. If you live in Salisbury half of that will go to rent and the rest to your other monthly bills. How in the hell did you survive before??
This used to be a career starter.What happened?
Minimum wage laws do not apply to wait staff
2 or maybe 3 jobs
