What "Papa John" said was that the franchise owners would likely have to cut employees' hours if they didn't want to pay. Not that he was making them. He doesn't personally run every location, people buy into his franchise and open their own location, they are the managers, and can choose whether or not to cut employee hours. Not saying its good, but its the same with every other chain. Read past the headlines people

[–]pinkeyedwookiee 2 points3 points ago

Thank you voice of reason. You have been absent on reddit lately.

[–]borgfinkleton 0 points1 point ago

"lately" implies it was ever here.

[–]willywompa 3 points4 points ago

thank you.. fuckin sensationalism

[–]tdn 17 points18 points ago

I honestly can't figure it out. I read in a thread that someone said he was a bad tipper, with Reddit's high demographic of service industry workers this makes him literally Hitler.

[–]Alcleme1 11 points12 points ago

I believe its because he said he was going to reduce worker hours for obama care

[–]johnturkey 2 points3 points ago

he said this a few months ago.. I guess reddit was a sleep.

[–]sircerx 1 point2 points ago

Now I know this sounds crazy but maybe, just maybe, Reddit was more than one sleep instead.

[–]Milo687 0 points1 point ago

I feel like that is lie, reddit is only 2-3 people who all sleep at once...

[–]Legio_X 1 point2 points ago

It seems 95% of redditors are either unemployed or lowly paid service industry workers or IT industry guys.

It's no surprise anything regarding those two demographics is a powder keg. They're both expendable and basically unskilled, so of course they'll generally be paid very little and have few if any benefits.

[–]HaroldSax 4 points5 points ago

How is IT unskilled?

[–]pinkeyedwookiee -2 points-1 points ago

Judging by what my friend at an IT department does half my friends can do the exact same thing.

[–]mattmicko -2 points-1 points ago

If an IT person isn't working for a large company or the government, their job could be done by a teenager with google.

[–]golemike 1 point2 points ago

But..but..two million free pizzas.

[–]BongoMadness 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, a business owner reasonably trying to hedge the losses from a bullshit law. What a prick.

[–]Crossrunner 7 points8 points ago

Is this because of his reaction to obamacare?

[–]Alcleme1 0 points1 point ago

Believe so yes

[–]count_chocula -2 points-1 points ago

Yes, he said that he was raising the price of pizzas to combat Obamacare, but then he just came out and said he was cutting everyone's hours down to 30 so he didn't have to pay their insurance, but that he was still raising the price of his pizzas. Pretty shitty all around if you ask me.

[–]lalondtm 12 points13 points ago

HE didn't say that. HE said THE FRANCHISE owners would have to cut hours IF they didn't want to pay the necessary taxes. "Papa John" doesn't privately run every location, you do realize how a franchise business works, don't you?

[–]stevensamypp 10 points11 points ago

Or he can be the guy who is nice to his employees with the trade-off being the potential of going out of business. There's a fine line when running a massive business and sometimes being cheap is what it takes to stay in the game. We've all seen the posts about he's cheap when it comes to tipping, but the business world isn't all friendship and hugs.

[–]remjob61 0 points1 point ago

Screw business men/women who want to make money! Fuckers!

[–]feor1300 6 points7 points ago

LOUD NOISES!

[–]seanrm 2 points3 points ago

I love lamp.

[–]Planehater 0 points1 point ago

[–]iRideDragons 1 point2 points ago

Go back to bed OP

[–]Wildcard1222 0 points1 point ago

I agree, op. Who the hell actually orders Papa Johns anyways? Their deals suck ass compared to Dominos and Little Ceasers.

[–]pinkeyedwookiee 0 points1 point ago

I prefer pizza hutt. I enjoy eating pizza backwards.

[–]civilian11214 0 points1 point ago

OP, the sheep.

[–]Omniabsence 0 points1 point ago

"Everyone" is probably an overstatement. The vast majority of people don't care.

[–]sfurules 0 points1 point ago

You re-elected Obama. These are the consequences.

Real life is a bitch sometimes, isn't it?
