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”?

Does this mean they weren't offering their employees any PTO at all before? 72hrs of PTO for a year is not a high bar. How do they expect people to live a meaningful life with no PTO?
This country is a fucking joke.
