    “You work a minimal effort job you get minimum wage.”

    Explain to me again why I’m seeing machinists and web development jobs being posted for fucking $16/hr when that’s minimum wage?

    Why are people who literally save fucking lives getting taco bell wages?

    I love how there’s always a quote to justify shit wages that just completely flies in the face of reality.

    I’d say minimal effort is simply owning a thing and paying other people to do the work for you. Sorry that making phone calls is so much work for you…

      In California, at least, the people who save lives will be guaranteed at least $1/hour more than what the Taco Bell employees are guaranteed in 2024.
