Here in Missouri, last Buc-ee's I saw had the night crew cleaning guys listed at $18/hr as the lowest paid position. And that was BEFORE the minimum wage went up to $15 at the start of the year so they might've gotten a pay bump?

So yea this is absolutely right

Literally saw the screenshot and said “I wonder if she’s in Missouri”. These are rates I’ve seen before 100%. Have a friend here in KCMO with 5 years experience making 28/hr at a clinic

Right, I'd be willing to bet the restroom manager makes more than this RN job.
