So far, 13,000 employees have signed a petition protesting the $39 deduction on their paycheck as there is no option to have it removed. According to the New York Post, Waffle House employees are also asking for higher wages and more vital safety protocols due to the number of physical altercations with customers that have increased throughout the years.

Today @WaffleHouse workers delivered THIRTEEN THOUSAND petitions to corporate headquarters in Atlanta. Our demands are clear:

✅ Minimum wage of $25/hr for ALL workers

Some of the employees said that the meal deduction charge is implemented even if they don’t eat the food from the restaurant along with not being able to take a meal break at all. The meal deductions have also increased said Cindy Smith, a Georgia-based employee. “The meal deductions have always been taken out, but it was only, like, $1.50 per shift. Then they decided to start bumping it up. Every day that you work now, it is $3.75 that comes out of your check. That’s more than I make an hour,” she explained.

The protests took place outside of Waffle House headquarters in Atlanta and Smith added that the bosses have reportedly dismissed employee concerns.

“We all stood out there. We were very quiet. We were not rude. We were not disrespectful. We only sent three people in to deliver 13,000 signed petitions for them to tell us if we did not get off the property, they were going to call the police, and they threw all 13,000 petitions in the trash.” 

Waffle House is a 24-hour diner chain with a cult-like following. Founded in 1955 by Joe Rogers Sr. and Tom Forkner, Waffle House is known for its affordable, greasy food, friendly service, and around-the-clock availability.
