A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

The 90-hour weeks part?
The fact that he was doing it for a fossil fuel company?
The fact that he's worth fucking $9.5 billion?

Also, not in the headline, but-

The fact that he did it back in the 90s when you could actually successfully open a small business and make money from it as if it's relevant today?

The business is a franchise called Raising Caine's Chicken, which I've never had, but if you go by Yelp reviews, it's either the best restaurant that has ever existed or pretty mediocre.

Also, Wikipedia says very little about his early life, but apparently his parents could afford to send him to a private catholic school, so he didn't exactly grow up improverished.

Raising Caine's chicken is like, OK I guess but I never go there because of a few things

  1. They literally just sell chicken tenders primarily, I'm not kidding
  2. They refuse to give you BBQ sauce, they only have "caines sauce" which I don't enjoy.

So I don't go there even if I want chicken tenders.

I fully agree with you about the sauce. Super overrated. Give me BBQ sauce or ranch any day for my tenders
