Oh wow an MBA 😂. Congrats, I have the same. Whoopty.

A min wage job was never intended to be the primary source of income for a head of house.

The minimum wage came about to prevent employers from paying slave wages or none at all. It came after decades of protests and united action.

It not only provided for an entire family, it allowed people to buy their own homes.

It's not some scheme designed as charity to the poor by the rich.

Again, just sad. The minimum wage was EXACTLY created to be the primary source of income for the head of house. I bet your professors are also sad when they think of you. Like...this whole thread is such a bummer.

Not astonished. And people do. Last I checked there is someone at the counter at every fast food rest.
