    I did too until last year when I realized Subway was making my 16 year old niece work for 9 hours with no lunch and no breaks.

    Even minors, don’t get lunches in red states.

        Didn’t know. Their crime is not being informed about something that they wouldn’t know about. Increase your chill, friend.

            It’s my fault! Sometimes, I don’t explain myself well in text! Sorry about that!

            I definitely care, just didn’t know that kind of thing was happening or that it was legally allowed to happen until she mentioned it and I researched it.

            It’s also infuriating because now that I know it’s a problem, I don’t know what to do about it and I feel helpless to make effective change.
