You’re implying that certain jobs don’t deserve a living wage, but it’s fine because higher wages exist in other jobs. So should fast food just disappear? Who is going to work these jobs that don’t deserve a living wage? Slaves?
Teenagers looking for part time jobs, recent retirees looking for additional cash, folks that have partners witb ‘living wage’ jobs. And I never said anything about anyone deserving anything. My pro tip was, if you want a living wage, you will not find it at a fast food job. Try harder. Or, continue to piss and moan on the internet.
You seem utterly clueless. Old people don’t work as a greeter at Wal-Mart for “extra cash” they do it because they would be homeless otherwise. Teenagers can be exploited, old people can be exploited, but it’s fine because you consider fast food to be a shit job. You’re a gigantic asshole.
I worked in fast food for six years beginning at age 19. I worked my way up into management and became a training manager during a growth phase of the company helping to launch five new restaurants. I typically managed crew teams of 35-40 and 4-5 assistant mgrs. I know a HELL of a lot about the business, AND the people that work in them. I believe everyone should work in a fast food restaurant (or some other public facing retail/service business) for a time to get an appreciation for what those jobs entail. And I am very qualified, certainly more so than you, when I state that expecting a living wage from a fast food job is a fool’s errand.
Now, I’m pretty sure you have violated the rules for posting here with your childish response and expect the moderator(s) to delete your comment.
Pro tip: Don’t work at a fast food restaurant if you expect a livable wage. There are other options, especially in the US.
