When you raise the minimum wage you raise the prices of many things and it cycles. For many serving is a temporary thing and for others it is their life work.

I don't believe anybody is advocating that at all. If serving became life's work, as it is in Western Europe, there would be no part-timers, college students, starving artists, etc. trying to subsidize their education or dreams. It would be their career, the standards for hire would be more stringent, and the service would end up being better.
No one would be walking out on a restaurant full of patrons because they couldn't stand the pressure. Those types would never be hired in the first place.
