Striking restaurant workers at San Francisco International Airport are leaving hungry passengers to settle for peanuts, as workers say management is doing to them.
Approximately 1,000 servers, cooks, bartenders, dishwashers, and cashiers walked off the job today, bringing the food industry at the airport’s 84 food outlets to a standstill. Contract negotiations for a raise broke down in a city where even making $100,000 a year is not enough to pay for rent, groceries, utilities, and healthcare.
The city has seen a mass exodus of the middle class in recent years as housing and other costs make it unlivable except for the wealthy. Service industry employees typically live in outside suburbs and endure a lengthy traffic-clogged commute every day.
