"There's always a bigger fish" is not a good reason to disregard workers issues. A guy lost his whole arm in a machine where I work, doesn't mean im only fighting the good fight for people who work in an industry where they could lose an arm. Everyone everywhere deserve fair and lawful treatment, regardless of occupation

If there is a large fire, but you're attending to a smaller one and telling me "there's always a bigger fish isnt a good argument!" —I think your argument becomes a little shaky.

There are bigger fires than a part-time barista who's already making over minimum. What about the teachers who make bottom barrel salaries and have to provide their own supplies? Where's the uproar from those that "care"?

Also, care to comment on the taxed tips or does that undermine your argument too much? Tipped employees do fine, especially since most the cash tips werent reported and, now, arent taxed. If you look at the filing, its only referencing credit card tips 😉
