More Working Poor Needed Taco Bell to add 100,000 U.S. Jobs

Food service is honest hard work, but the $ isn't there.This is great news,if you need to earn extra money after school, but many people will use this as a full time job opportunity or work 2-3 part time jobs, and the Melt down continues.

It used to be those silly manufacturing jobs with benefits/pensions, not any more. So if you don't like the above headline vote for the candidate that says they will return the manufacturing jobs.

Taco Bell, the Yum Brands Inc. YUM, -0.52% Mexican fast-food chain, said Friday that it plans to add 100,000 new jobs in the U.S. by 2022 and grow to 9,000 locations nationwide. The company launched a new platform earlier this month to attract and retain talent, and offers help for staffers looking to further their education and training programs for those with career goals within the company. Over the next six years, the company aims to reach $15 billion in global sales, according to Taco Bell Chief Executive Brian Niccol. Yum Brands shares are inactive in premarket trading and up 14.5% for the year. The S&P 500 Index SPX, +0.09% is up 2.2% for 2016 so far.

Remember, Taco Bell wins the fast food wars.

There's hope for college degrees !!!

And now people can pay off their student loans in 30 years !!!

Not just taco Bell, they also own other disgusting 'food' purveyors such as KFC, Pizza Hut and Long John Silver's.

Probably best if the employees do not get paid in product as well.

Only if they live with their parents for those 30 years.

Our local Taco Bell has had Hiring signs out for the past 4 months. And they start at 13.00/hr. Don't high schooler's need jobs anymore?

That isn't bad pay depending on cost of living.

Minimum wage should be $20.

I'll forget it, what does Vulture Capitalism have to do with Obama? Isn't this the "Free Markets" Republicans get boners about?

My point was only to be taken as ridiculous, while also being reasonable. You think you're telling me anything?

No, for our relatively small town, it isn't bad.

@ Az., no, but they could work after school, so any adult that needed a job could work during the day/morning shift. Plus our high School has work credit for seniors.

$20 is not reasonable for working at a fast food place where the preparation involves mostly hitting 'start' on the microwave and asking people if they want a side with their garbage.

Must be college requirements for those jobs.

Either the business pays enough to live, or the govt. subsidies the businesses (tax Payers) that pay so poorly. That's it in a nut shell.
