And yet, the minimum wage still isn’t $15/hr....even for 2000 hours a year (if a fry slinger could get that many hours with that new wage) that’s just $30,000.... how can they live on that? How can they find the time to advance themselves? How can they see a step increase without a corresponding decrease in hours? How can they even hope to get a full-boat (with medical) retirement?
Where is the EQUITY? Teachers working 9 months a year making $80,000 a year and the poor hash slingers we hope don’t spit in our burgers only getting something way less than $30K? No medical, no summer baycation, no professional enrichment, Where is the effing EQUITY?
I guess that’s why we probably don’t see teachers at the local fast food place during lunchtime.
My heart really bleeds for these teachers.
You forgot the /s...or did you?
