Here’s how much S&P 500 companies paid workers during the pandemic

Was there a point you were trying to make? In other news, physicians made more money than busboys over the last decade. Does this mean hospitals are better employers than restaurants and we should look down on the food service industry?


What if hospitals opened up their own chain of restaurants. That might be win-win for all.


Oh ya, just dream. What with the great food they have in the commissary, there's no limit to how awesome a hospital restaurant chain would be!
Medicare, Medicaid, Medifood.


50 years ago I was hospitalized twice for a few days for diagnostic tests.

The first time the food was tremendous! It was so good that I ordered practically everything on the "menu". I still remember one nurse walking into the room and being overwhelmed at how much food was on my tray.

My expectations had now been set quite high which led me into thinking that my second time food experience would be a repetition of my first hospital food experience. Different hospital and it was as you intimated above. Big-time disappointment for the 20 year old me.

As long as you love Jello, it's all good.


I think that would have basically been my response from the second experience. But decidedly NOT the first.
