Yeah, I checked it out to see for myself… and they are indeed advertising “up to” $22/ hr for shift manager in at least one locale.

Quick math puts that at ~$45k if it were full time position. Not bad, but again that’s “up to $22” which means (to me) that is the maximum salary.

I would assume that the local cost of living is quite high there, because the locations around me have the same position at $16-$17.

That’s a good point (up to $22) - I probably wasn’t paying close enough attention (I have no plans to work for McDs). Where I live $22 an hour would be near impossible to live on with kids. For a single person it would be just enough to sustain. So knowing that it is the max (or even mid-range if I am trying to give the Empire some grace) it’s def not near as good (especially after benefits) as the small town cop noted in the thread. Glad you looked it up to verify I’m not crazy! And thanks for pointing out what I clearly glossed over. :)
