So there's this political ad complaining about minimum wage | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78173554 United States 01/19/2020 08:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't know who the douchebag was, but he whined that nowhere in America can someone working 40 hours a week at minimum wage afford a 2 bedroom apartment. I've had a job since I was 14, I only ever earned less than minimum wage once and that was when I was 15. At 14, I got paid 12 bucks an hour to shovel snow, under the table. Minimum wage at the time was $5.25 an hour I believe. My next job was at a fast food restaurant, that was $5.00 an hour under the table which was also above minimum wage considering the lack of taxes. After that I stocked shelves at a grocery store and also worked at a hardware store, that was 7 or 8 bucks an hour... some of my fellow employees were literally retarded and they did a pretty good job too, not as good as me but good enough to get product on the shelf for the customer. Minimum wage was still $5.25 an hour, they made as much as I did. Further on down the road I got real jobs making real money... but here's the thing, minimum wage is not supposed to buy you a house with a white picket fence... it's for high school kids, retards, and senior citizens looking to supplement their social security. It's not my fault that democrats imported 30 million illegal future post-amnesty voters who are trying to raise a family of 6 cleaning toilets. |
