Getting closer to 98, then its just one last level Keep it up =D>

Thanks

Exactly, that's outrageous , I consider it slave labor. Think about it.

Exactly right my friend.. If you take into consideration the fact that they do this awful hard work with no real help from the employers , and how hard the work is , their wage is really awful. From this article. http://www.wfn.org/2007/11/msg00309.html "Most tomato pickers still receive roughly the same pay as in 1978 - 40 to 50 cents for every 32-pound bucket of tomatoes they pick. To earn $50 a day, considered a good haul, workers must pick about 125 buckets of tomatoes, or about two tons . A penny more per pound, for each 32-pound bucket of tomatoes would provide the workers a 71-percent increase in wages. "Stop trying to rob poor farmworkers of the first meaningful raise they've had in almost thirty years," Kirkpatrick urged Burger King and the FTGE in his statement. "It's malicious and shameful. These men and women deserve a fair wage for their backbreaking work - and their penny-per-pound wage increase comes at no cost to the growers and at little cost to the fast-food corporations."" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BlueLancer, your like a god of information! Actually, it's nothing when it adds up. Burger King's total revenue: $2.48 Billion USD (2006) Burger King's pure profit last month (ending quarter 3): $49 million dollars Cost of supplying 5000 restaurants with 2,000 pounds of tomato per day, with 1 cent added to operating costs: $3 million per month Sure, it's a lot to the greedy shareholders and bosses. But they are already filthy rich and make continuous profits; By increasing the price per pound by a cent they lose less than 5% of their profits while keeping their employees up with todays standard wages. Thanks for info!

Good luck 99 agility plus 1337 total = ultra massive 1333337! Check out my bloggeh?

Haha, my friend, do you realize what you have just said? There will be no greed-stopping among humans anytime soon. Hell, the developed world's economic system is based off greed. We're human, there is no way to stop greed. [unless, ofcourse, you were referring to this on a smaller scale, such as putting Burger King out of business. Regardless, they still make a hell of alot of money and I don't think any petition is going to change that.] That's true, but the extents of greeds to which BK is reaching is sick. We're not talking about giving farmer's a CEO salary, we're talking about a $10 bucks increase per 1 ton of vegetables. If that can't be paid for the quality work they do, that's pretty sick. Talking about sick, compare the salaries of the Burger King CEO and the average Burger King 'front line' worker. CEO salary total with bonuses: $3 million per year BK worker salary total with bonuses: $18,000 per year Just cutting the boss' salary equals to 30,000 tons of tomato with the added $0.01 price tag per pound. Yeah, the farmers must be unreasonable... THANK YOU O:) That was a great post , wow! Yes , hellbellz , no raise since 1978 , and with inflation , you can imagine how unfair that is. Edit: Sorry! Double posted :cry: :cry: Dont kill me.

Thanks :D To other posts, i know human greed is natural, I should have said we can stop the awful unfair wage.. And to yamom, listen, if all you do is sit around and say " oh, a petition or a boycott won't do anything, or good luck with that " then nothing is ever gonna change. It's because of people like that , that sit around and do nothing, that corprations, bad politicans , and other gross people get away with these awful things

Yep :? Tell your friends please and we can help stop the wealthy greedy profits of Burger King I'm not sure if this is related to this issue, but if it is, :D

There's my post from april, here's another bump for pinky, can't wait til your done with school

You. Evry1. Lol Are we doing this too much? Noes, we must do it more. Indeed. Yeah ok I went to thiejse's party. Pked ammo Was it good? Sure . Hey all, thanks for all the posts, support, it really helps. Took a big algebra test, think I did good, my average in that class isnt the greatest >.> Hey dogman, long time no waffle. =D Glad to see you still on tif.. Thx thiejse, wouter, paul, and etp =D Time to go post on all your blogs.

I don't get your sarcasm, and if you thing I'm a farmworker, you're kinda out there. I'm a middle school student =P Yes, this doesn't surprise you, but take action on it..

http://www.ciw-online.org/ This is something I thought I'd might bring up. Farmworkers that pick tomatoes in Florida, almost at slave labor standards want 1 cent more per pound they pick. Burger King has refused to give them a increase in their wage since 1978~ Think about inflation and how bad that wage is. Check the website, and get involved. This coalition also did this with Taco Bell and McDonalds, and they agreed to raise wages. If Burger King does not agree to raise the per pound wage by 1 cent, please boycott and tell your friends. I never go there anyways ( healthy 4 lyfe :D ) but don't go if you do. These farmworkers call themselves " The Coalition of IMMOKALEE Workers" Some pretty awesome protesting .. 8-) Hope Burger King listens. EDIT : Updated Information Found by BlueLancer and Myself.
