Grandola Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 So my boy tells me that he heard they're thinking of raising it up to $7 somthing an hour, which is good, cause $5.15/hr isn't shit. I personally think mim. wage should be raised up to at least $8 an hour cause shit is so expensive. with a $5.15/hr payout, it's nearly impossible to have a car, apartment, and enough food to make it through to the next check. $5.15 x 40hr week = $206 before the governement takes out most of it. $206 x 4 weeks = $824 then subtract car payments, rent, utilities, food... damn. anyhow, what do you think about min. wage?

Ken E. Bus Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 The thing with minimum wage is that it is never going to be a good living. If they increase minimum wage everything else will increase as well. Just because the store has to pay extra money for labor does not mean they will eat it. They will raise their prices. The whole issue is you need to develop yourself to a level were you can earn a higher wage. No matter how much minimum wage is it is still the bottom of the scale and always will be.

Guest --zeSto-- Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 yep... higher education (and/or training) = higher level of skill = higher paycheck. think of it like this... If a trained monkey could do your job, then why are you worth 8$ an hour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest OPRAH Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 Originally posted by Ilove2hate thanks! u fat bitch!:mad: hahaha, how old are you 14 or 15? Its obvious your in highschool and having a hard time making friends even though your rich and white. So your putting up a "i hate everything" campaign, to make it seem like you have control over who likes you, its alright though, the hormones are going fucking crazy right now. But to do it on the internet is very lame, as this is not real, and the majority of people here are above 18, dont think like a 15 year old loser, and can see right through you. And your name, Ilove2hate, sorry what your doing is being a stupid jack ass. Hating has a certain comical quality, what you say is not funny, you just sound like a suburban white nerd whos feelings have been hurt. Quite gay dont you think? wow there raising mi.wage...good to now your alot of help....you stupid fag..you wanna now what i think about min.wag...nothin i dont think about mn.wag..u loser "nothin i dont think about mn.wag" that shows how shallow and stupid you really are, if you didnt live in a rich town of suppressed nerds, youd get jacked everyday. your see through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
