People in here are missing the point. Yeah, Applebees, Olive Garden, IHOP, etc. aren’t “classy”, they’re cheap chain sit-down restaurants. They appeal to a wide audience, cause they are clean, the food is fine, they serve a variety of drinks, and you can go there semi-regularly as long as you have some disposable income.
Sure, you’re not going to see multi-millionaires who grew up rich going there, those people go to the “fancy” chains, like Ruth’s Chris Steak House. But you’d probably see a 6 figure tech job family sitting in a both next to a plumber family sitting next to a doctor family. Which is something you don’t really see at most other places.
Six figure tech job here. I no longer feel like I can afford Applebee’s, idk about olive garden because the food is gross. Certainly can’t afford drinks and dinner.
All you can eat zupa toscana. It’s the only reason to go to olive garden. The salad is fine also I guess. Hard to fuck up lettuce and Italian dressing. That said I probably go less than once a year.
Applebee’s, on the other hand, I don’t think I’ve been to one in fifteen years.
I don’t really like eating out that much any more unless it’s for something I can’t do at home like sushi or hibachi or a slow roasted brisket. Slop on a plate with sauce or a medium rare ribeye are things I can easily make at home for half the price.
It’s not really the money, these places just seem like a terrible waste of . And if you’re getting the lower calorie healthier option on these menus the food is just totally depressing. Always something like “here’s a piece of lemon, some leaves, and a skinless chicken breast.” I’m not paying someone to prepare that for me.
I have a nephew that just started classes at a vocational school. He said plumbers and electricians average the highest salaries of all the major trades.
Having just replaced a 30 year old oil heating system with a new high efficiency gas one I can say without a doubt that plumbers definitely make good money.
