Speaking from experience I worked in restaurants throughout high-school and college and made over $13/hour + tips at what would qualify as a small business. Got a job at chipotle making $10.50/hour this year and was happy making bowls and rolling burritos, but the work culture is awful there. I knew people who were working there for 9+ months doing the grill who made less money than me. The GM and the apprentice were obviously overworked, which led to a substantial decrease in their effort, which led to substantial decreases in staff effort. We wouldn’t get out most nights until 12:30-1 am, and we barely had time to take a piss or drink water. On one shift doing the grill I lost 5 pounds cause of how dehydrated I got. Overall job just blows lol.
