Workers in the food industry earn some of the lowest wages in the U.S. economy, and after a long day of preparing, cooking, or serving food at work, many
Food workers are about two and a half times more likely to be food insecure than workers in other sectors of the economy
Despite the upvotes and the BS second sentence I am going to agree with “It’s supposed to be a low earning job for kids.” Just like caddy at a golf course, and many others. The fact that our society is so broken people are forced to take these jobs and try to make a living underlines hundreds of other problems. I would rather see us fix all the others issues limiting the number of living wage jobs than worry about the pay of one sector. If that happened the fast food jobs would either be filled by “kids” or have to up wages to get any employees solving the fast food pay issue as well. just like @[email protected] says below things like “EMTs only get $15/hr” being fixed along with unemployment rates would go a long way.
Here’s the problem with “it’s supposed to be a low wage job for kids”, the vast majority of operating hours for fast food are either when kids are at school, or when they’re sleeping / studying.
Fast food jobs were actual living wage jobs before chucklefucks tried to manipulate society into thinking it’s only a shit wage, kids-only job.

Like, when was the last time you actually saw a kid working at McDonald’s? Cause usually it’s some college age guy or some older lady.
