A pizza employee makes much more than 13 hr. There are sick days, holidays, taxes, fees and lawsuits. For 13/hr employee you're probably looking at 20/hr at least in costs.


Depends on where you're at. This machine could be profitable in some places, and probably not in others.


> sick days, holidays

There might be some fancy pizza restaraunts where the staff isn't hourly, but I don't know of any. Taxes and fees are pretty minimal on a minimum wage employee, so that leaves lawsuits which I have no idea how to quantize.


Plenty of hourly employees have holidays and paid time off. Pretty much anyone that is paid hourly and in a union, for instance.


Assuming they work full time and receive benefits. The pizza shops I've worked in did not offer benefits or full time hours.
