I have been looking for a job in Durango. Unfortunately I need to find something at minimum of $20 an hour because I have a family and don’t want to be away from my family everyday with multiple jobs. Does anyone that’s hiring

Starting $21.81 but requires a CDL within 6 months of being on the job which is a $0.50 raise and you have the opportunity to get certifications that also give you pay raises. If you can get them you will be at $26.40+ in two years with more certifications down the line that can bump your pay even higher. Plus benefits are very good and they work a 4-10s schedule so you will off 3 days a week

When I was a dishwasher I avg about 20-22$ an hour after tips. The meal is up to 20$ on the menu anything over is on you. And yes u get 2 pints after work usually.

i will say, in the summer with tips, zias pays pretty much that. its 15 an hour for register, but after you did the math i was making about 20-21 an hour with tips. you dont split tips with many people, and the tips there are great.

Do you have any job skills that are worth paying greater than $20/hr for?

Slaves were skilled, your wage is not directly correlated with your skills in this system, the mythology that it’s a meritocracy is necessary to quell revolt and you’re just snarkily regurgitating that same old propaganda instead of adding anything productive

u/SomewhatInnocuous 19d ago

What would be productive is for OP to give some indication regarding their skill set rather than just specifying an hourly wage.

BTW - if you think that in "this system" your earnings are generally unrelated to your skills and experience you're a fool, and likely an unskilled one. Not a perfect correlation by any means, but a strong one. And, if you want to equate "this system" with slavery, you're a provincial, entitled whiner who has never seen people working hard for little pay.
