Man tax?

Owner Alex OBrien told Broadsheet website: €œI do want people to think
about it, because weve had this (pay discrepancy) for decades and
decades and were bringing it to the forefront of peoples minds.

€œI like that it is making men stop and question their privilege a little

I noted a couple interesting things about the article. There is no
indication that the owner is paying his female staff anything more than
he pays his male staff. He is in the restaurant business, one which
depends heavily in female staff and one which tends to pay minimum wage
with a reliance on tipping. The photos say a lot about it. In one photo
there are two women. Another shows an empty restaurant.

If they had a way to check, they'd also charge non-******* women the
extra 18%.

It's a feminist cafe, Alex the owner is female and so are all the
staff.

You're really into your new hobby of stating the obvious, aren't you?

A couple people responded to my small error about the owner being female
instead of the male I assumed by the name Alex, but no one cared to
address the observation made about the lack of an indication that Alex
was paying her employees extra wages to make up for that 18% wage gap.
She might have been better off to remove the idiotic sign about the 18%
tax on men's bills and put one up that suggested a 25% tip for her staff
because she pays them the same shit wages that most other wait staff are
paid.

I'd not call them shit wages. Tipping optional

FYI 17,29 AUD = $17.34 CAD $13.69 USD

"The minimum wage in Australia is $17.29 per hour, so the obligation to
tip is less than in countries such as the US," says Musson. "This has
impacted Australian attitudes towards giving and expecting tips. There
are no circumstances where a tip is obligatory, but in service
industries it is always appreciated."
