I just genuinely don’t understand that phrase, if you have someone working 40 hrs a week at $10 an hr (or more since it’s usually management covering this shift) and they want to work 20 how is going to cost the company more money to hire me to work those 20 hours. I have tons of restaurant experience and I keep getting denied. I’ve had 3 mum’s for babysitting gigs tell me the same thing, why even put the ad up if you knew you can’t afford it and you’re husband is going to watch the kids. This just happened to me at my jobs of which I alr possess (our location closed down so I went to one a few miles over) happened w whole foods and a few other restaurants (literally went thru 2+ rounds of interviews and orientation to be told that on my first day) I’m so stressed out and sad idk if I can do this again but I’m in so much debt I’m starting to believe its something about me and “budget cuts” are their excuse. I just don’t understand these are companies where everyone Is getting paid the same/ low wage and they are obviously understaffed and their existing staff does NOT want to work the amount of hours they are given so how does it cost them more money to just hire me? I’ve even offered to work for half the wage 😞
In: Economics
Every employee costs money even if they work no hours. The company has to pay for
hiring, training, payroll, and tax administration.
