[QUOTE="LongTimeComing, post: 1192599, member: 45493"] Minimum wage needs to go up. Yes. But $15 an hour for an entry position at a friggin McD?!?! Are these people retarded? Obtain some skill....do some real work...then you can bitch and complain and "strike" for real money... Now let me clarify. Fast food might be the only job someone can get, for whatever multitude of reasons. It might become their one and only source of income. I get that. But that doesn't mean that the wages should...all of the sudden...conveniently become well enough to live off of happily for the rest of your life. What makes these people deserve $15 an hour? It sure as hell isn't their skill....it's not physically or mentally demanding work....Do they just feel (wait for it) entitled? Are they just demanding it just because they can? The company's profits does not decide a person's pay...the work they do does. If they get their $15 an hour...Will this insure they are always polite? Never screw up my order? Food will be fresh and hot? It will actually come to me fast? [/QUOTE]
