They aren’t using happy to mean enjoyment. They meant that the hypocrites will deign to eat at BK, but don’t think the workers deserve a living wage, much less a thriving wage.
His job isn’t good enough, his employer, Burger King, treated him like shit for 27 years paying bottom of the barrel wages to the point where he couldn’t afford a down payment or mortgage on a house.
It doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve a house, anyone who works full time should be able to afford a house. It doesn’t have to be a big luxurious house, but they should be able to own a place big enough for themselves and their dependents a reasonable distance from work.
If he really wanted a house he would have just hustled more, like getting 3 extra full time jobs, or selling some organs. Stop rewarding lazy uncommitted people that are scared of the grind.
Also, Burger King decided long ago he doesn’t deserve a house, regardless of how hard he works or how few days he calls in for. That’s Corporate Greed, and it’s insatiable.
It’s almost like if you want to achieve certain things in life, you need to put yourself in the position to achieve those things. Thinking you’re dependent on your employer for health care is wild and a whole different discussion.
Remember. Lots of people in this country look at this and say he doesn’t deserve a house because his job isn’t good enough.
But they are happy to eat at Burger King. The food is good enough for them, but the people making the food aren’t.
And raising his wage wouldn’t raise the price of burgers.
No one is happy to eat at Burger King.
Then don’t. Not even once more.
Corporations listen to one thing.
I don’t.
But they treat you like a king…
That’s what you would think, right? But it turns out…

Ew, who would want to eat at Burger King 🤢
The trick, you see, is to not think about it, and avoid anything that makes you think about it. For most people that achieves all personal objectives.

I wonder why he stayed there for 27 years, instead of finding a better job. He obviously has a great work ethic.
He may not have had a better choice which is why we need legislation that increases the minimum wage.
That doesn’t invalidate my curiosity as to why he stayed there 28 years.
I wonder what is most to blame, 1) real wage deflation, 2) real wealth deflation or 3) rising cost of living
The rich pieces of shit who own Burger King? And all of the stockholders?
IMHO it’s #2. Even if you’ve got a high wage to CoL ratio, they’ll keep robbing you while calling you financially illiterate.

It’s his own fault for not being born into emerald mine money. If Elon can do it, so could he, if he weren’t too lazy.

I bet all the people working in their corporate office can buy houses though. They probably get health insurance too
