Honestly, I would ask for more. Either or fewer hours or more money. But certainly not both. Especially in the city, it's so expensive. In my opinion, you should either get a raise or start looking for something else. You deserve more.
Agreed, sir you have being heavily worked and super underpaid. Demand more. You deserve it.
A quick Google says the average is around $65k in that area, and that's not taking into account the fact that you're spending a ridiculous amount of time at work. You should definitely be getting paid more.
Hard to say right now. I’d look at what other jobs around are at. Seems like a lot of places aren’t offering top dollar right now. Restaurants around, including where I am, have been in a hard spot lately. Not making the money they used to and the cost of everything has gone up significantly.
If your management is open to salary discussion you should talk to them! I’m totally all for that. But just be careful because I’ve heard some managers/owners can be jerks and then just fire you if you try to negotiate. If that if the case, I’d just look for another job…
No you need over $60k a yr in Chicago
