$25 an hour to work at Waffle House?

That’s what some employees and supporters at the chain restaurant's southeast locations are apparently requesting. #WaffleHouse was trending Monday and Tuesday because some Waffle House employees in Atlanta protested for a higher wage, 24/7 security and an end to mandatory meal deductions, news reports show.

Earlier this week, there were several tweets and videos on social media showing rallies at restaurants in Atlanta, held largely in part by the Union of Southern Service Workers.
