First off, I am not one of those anti-vax COVID conspiracy folks; I am fully vaccinated and got my booster back in December.

Since the pandemic started, many stores in my area have shortened their business hours. Walmart and McDonalds both used to be 24 hours but have been closing early ever since March or April of 2020 (so basically 2 years straight of short business hours.)

Ive gotten semi used to the shorter hours now, but McDonalds just shortened their hours EVEN MORE, previously closing at 10 PM but now I just tried to place and order at 9:15 and they are closed.

Im so tired of this shit, man.

I want things to go back to normal. Its been 2 fucking years.

That's nothing compared to waiting an extra hour for the damn liquor store to open

It's not pandemic anymore. It's companies not wanting to pay for decent wages and people not accepting shit wages/hours.

McDonalds wages have gone up since the pandemic started.

Used to be a minimum wage job but they keep putting flyers in my bag saying they will start you at $14 with no experience with guaranteed raises every 6 months. Also college tuition reimbursement and a bunch of other shit.

I work 60 hours a week (night shift) and I might consider working there part time for some extra cash if I can get a food discount. I eat McDonalds constantly LOL

This. Companies used this as an excuse to massively increase prices and if the virus did one good thing, it was to make us realize that working slave labor for non-livable wages isnt appealing.

Corporations and business owners are intentionally short staffing and trying to blame it on the workforce not wanting to work. They will have twenty of thirty people working there, but only let three people work at a time when they normally would have eight. Then they cut back store hours because they want to pay the workers late. It doesnt matter if you like shopping late, you are forced to go eventually, so they get your money one way or another. They just dont have to pay the workers for the night shift.

Haha not to be a story-topper but where I live things always close around 6-8pm. Some places like McDonald's are open longer though. Night-life doesn't exist here except for clubs.

This one always bothered my because it seems like it makes more sense to spread out when people arrive in the store rather than condense the time they're open so more people are in the store but now its probably a matter of staffing more than anything.

I never said I was blaming the workers.

Also they were doing it 24/7 before the pandemic.

I'm pretty sure there was a tiny asterik on the sign, indicating "Up to $14/hr"

Feels like when I was growing up in the 90s. When it got dark, most shit closed down. I don't remember the world being very 24/7 style until around 2011. That's when weird shit started just kinda falling from the sky really.
