Senator Ted Cruz is getting mobbed online after he implied that restaurant servers don't deserve [...]
Ted Cruz showing his disgust at ‘waiters and waitresses’ getting the $600 unemployment benefit....maybe this jackass should’ve told his buddy Trump to issue a federal mask mandate four months ago so it would be safe to go back to work#100Days pic.twitter.com/WPz1tLCbkM

Servers are paid at a lower statutory minimum wage than most other workers, and they rely on tips to survive. Far fewer people go to restaurants during a pandemic shutdown.
How does someone this ignorant become a US Senator?https://t.co/XZxajwcMUy

@SenTedCruz How dare you Ted Cruz! I'm a fine dining bartender in Naples for 31 years and make $75,000 a year facing eviction due to covid-19! I hope not a server or bartender will serve you in this country. We are some of the hardest workers in the USA. Shame on you! Shameful!

prevnext@POTUS Mr. President, I hope bartenders and servers in ALL establishments refuse to serve Ted Cruz! We are the hardest workers & he thinks we don't deserve the same unemployment. Florida is a fraud and a joke anyway. I'm a bartender and make $75,000 a yr

Now EVICTED! Thx Covid!
I worked my bartending job on the weekends on top of my 40 hr/wk day gig. I'm anything but lazy and I stand to make -$30k this year because of the GOP's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. I know food service workers who log 5-6 shifts a week. $600 is nothin'.

prevnextWhy don't those small business owners just get jobs as waiters and cashiers then? Since apparently it's such an important job, and can apparently support a living, right?
Let those businesses die if they don't want to pay a living wage.

I worked in restaurants for over twenty years often open to close 7 days a week. i'd like to see Ted Cruz handle ONE 12 hour day at a busy restaurant and get back to me on how lazy staff is.

prevnextIt’s awful....I want my neighborhood bars and restaurants to open fully and I want to support them so bad but it has to be safe and it’s just not right now...so I’ll continue to buy the gift cards and hopefully they’ll survive this and I’ll use them when they open for real

I would like to know how much does the taxpayer pay Cruz salary... Would like to fire him. so I'm asking all the voters don't vote for Cruz in Congress again

prevnextCruz, typically for Republicans, claims $600 is 2x what many workers make & fails to grasp how absurd that income level is. Cruz has the moral awareness of a canebrake rattlesnake.

prevWhich just PROVED how poorly paid wait staff is paid in Texas. Also my guess is the only “small business “ owners calling Ted are regional franchise owners who would love to not pay their people at all
