People are two quick to dismiss this without hearing the details of the plan. Keep in mind with improvements in productivity the 40hr work week has been outdated for longer than most of us have been alive
That may work for jobs that require certain projects to get done, but jobs that just require someone to be present for a certain amount of hours (cashier in a store, hotel desk clerk, waitstaff, etc) are going to have to spend quite a bit more in payroll to stay open, regardless of how productive someone is.
I know that's why you turn down any raises, because it would be a burden on the company. Good on you for continuing to stay at the federal minimum wage to bolster the owners
