“In an interview Monday morning, one of the strikers, 19-year-old Doneshia Babbitt, said she hopes the protests will draw attention to the challenges of making ends meet on jobs that pay less than $8 an hour with no benefits.”

Doneshia is 19, and still hasn’t begun her senior year of high school. There’s only so much that can be done for Doneshia.

The first thing “Doneshia” should do is change her name (it draws “profiling”) and then she should change her attitude. She is doomed to a life of bad attitude, anger, exclusion and general unhappiness. It is amazing how some individuals make negativity their life purpose.

Doneshia needs to look around at her co-workers. The average age is not that of a high school or college age kid, it is more of a 30 to 40 something who didn’t value education. I had to explain that to my students who were complaining that there are no jobs out there for them. She also needs to realize that raising siblings is not her responsibility - although I praise her for stepping up and doing the best she can.

LOL! Doneisha is 19 and hasn’t begun her senior year of high school?

I guess $15 an hour is what one would expect for 14 years of educashun
