Service and the Budget

California’s budget jeopardizes more than just state workers income; it affects the income of customer service workers as well.

In the past few months the big story in California has been the state budget and how it has affected state workers, annuitants and, student workers.

The state workers however are not the only people affected by the executive order and the budget.

Keursten Jordan a front desk clerk at the double tree hotel says. “My job is actually affected by the state budget, we have seen a downward trend in business our occupancy rate is down six percent and that means that we aren’t making enough money to keep paying the employees.”

The hotel industry is not the only service industry affected by the state budget, restaurants in the area are also being affected.

Jolene from Chilies Howe bout Arden mentioned that her tips have taken a substantial down turn in the past few months.
Jolene says. “Well on a good night I would usually get about one hundred dollars in tips but lately I am only getting about fifty a night.”

Will the signing of the proposed budget turn the situation in California around?
