Honestly I get a bit tired of the whining about the minimum wage.
More than half the people on minimum wage, are between 16 and 24. More than half the rest, are working part-time.
To be perfectly and totally blunt, if you are an adult and working minimum wage, the problem is you.
If you do NOTHING... but show up..... ON TIME.... and work.... ALL THE TIME... and are reliable.... CONSISTENTLY... and work with your co-workers.... POLITELY....
You will move up from minimum wage.
You don't have to do practically anything. Just be on time, do your job, and work hard.
Even if you just stay at McDonald's until you die.... just doing your job, you'll move up the ladder at McDonalds. Some years back, McDonald's put out that statistically, some 80% or more of their store managers, and district managers, all started out as hourly crew members.
If you are at McDonald's for longer than 2 years straight, and you have not been promoted, that's because you suck for some reason.
You are either not getting along with your co-workers, or you show up late, or you disappear 5 times a day for a smoke break or something..... you are doing SOMETHING, that is causing you to stay at minimum wage.
Stop sucking, and get your butt to work.
Had a lady at Mejiers that worked there for a couple of years, asked to join the management training program, got in for free.... and now she's a district manager.
From separating produce and cleaning supplies in bags, to 6-figure income over 5 years.
If you are still working for minimum wage, over the age of 30.... the problem is in your mirror.
I was earning minimum wage, when I was 16... because I wasn't allowed to work more than 3 hours a day.
I have not earned minimum wage since then. Even when I was 17, I found a job that paid more than minimum wage.
