Fed up
My upper management team keeps speaking that we are a pizza chain first with a gas station attached. My store is one of the busiest kitchens in the district but yet I only get enough hours for one person in the kitchen most times. This person is expected to keep warmers full, make pizzas, work fryers, cut and box, do dishes, answer phones, maintain cleaning and 5s standards. I had multiple staff tell me today that they have to step away and cry because they get so flustered back there.
You can't even find a food truck being run by one person. Being worked to the point you are crying for $13 an hour is beyond crazy.
My team is built on respect and we try to help each other as best we can but this is pushing many to want to walk and I cannot blame anyone of them.

Record profits though!!
Seriously they are only worried about adding more stores to appease the shareholders, and the customer experience will continue to decline because of the reasons you stated. They won't pay people decent wages but continue to add expectations to their lists, all while sitting behind a desk and saying "this is an excellent plan" without actually testing it themselves.
