Cries at current $7.25 minimum wage.
- Those tears are telling you something. Like maybe unionize, or maybe move. At least do enough math to decide if you'd be better off elsewhere. We appreciate you and want you to be properly recompensed for your work.
  
  Never did I say I work minimum wage. I actually am very comfortable money wise, I however remember what it was like to work it, and understand those who have to. $7.25 is not survivable for anyone.
  
  I definitely agree with that
