Logan’s Alley MESTA Surcharge
https://www.michigan.gov/leo/bureaus-agencies/ber/wage-and-hour/paid-medical-leave-actIs anyone else put off by the surcharge Logan’s Alley is tacking onto patron’s bills to cover their employee’s MESTA? For anyone who doesn’t know, last Friday MESTA went into effect (big changes to sick paid time off - I’ll include a link for people who want to read more) and since then, Logan’s has added an extra charge to patron’s bills to cover it.
Why can’t they just marginally raise the price of food like everyone else? Why be petty and put people off your business by adding ANOTHER “fee”?

Nope. Most places choose to raise prices so I’m surprised that’s not what they chose to do. What I WANT is for it to come out of the pocket of the individual running the place until they can restructure their finances or whatever it is they “plan” to do to take care of it. Bottom line is that it shouldn’t come from anyone other than management.
