sur charge really ? is that a statement ? is he going to remove it if things change ? I might get coned into paying a surcharge once but never twice at a resturant.
If he needs to raise prices do it. If he can operate at lower cost then why has he not been doing it ? He can pay what 8 grand and not offer health care ? A surcharge is something used to get thru. a period of increased cost like fuel cost , the HC is here to stay he better get a better handle on cost and make long term plans to operate in the market with out gemicks.
