Chef’s Ultimatum: Pay Me More or I Quit! ️

Imagine dedicating your time, energy, and passion to your family’s restaurant, only to be paid the same as the serving staff.

After taking over as head chef, revamping the menu, and tripling the number of customers, they’re tired of being paid peanuts for their efforts. With the restaurant thriving during the crisis, they’ve given their father an ultimatum: pay them a proper wage or they’ll quit. But will this bold move backfire?
