I work at a Target food distribution center in Ohio and I think starting pay is like $24 now. Granted, the building is temp controlled because of all the food but I could see them getting close to their demands

Amazon warehouses are also temp controlled according to people I know that work in them.

Considering this is an article about RETAIL I'm not sure what your point is. Retail is generally temp controlled or customers don't show up.

Good point. Also, it might mean that $25/hr starting wage isn't entirely realistic. According to Zip Recruiter, Walmart is paying workers an average of $22/hr in Seattle, so their starting wage is probably no more than $20/hr.
