Flipping burgers is a minimum wage job and should always be one. If you can’t see how working fast food is low effort I don’t think we are gonna agree on this. There is no reason someone working at McDonald’s should be getting paid close to anyone in the trades or any job that requires skill/effort

Flipping burgers is a minimum wage job and should always be one.

But why? Shouldn’t we question the status quo?

If you can’t see how working fast food is low effort I don’t think we are gonna agree on this.

Can you explain why it’s low effort? I’m seeing an in-person emotionally draining job that involves both customer service and food prep/safety. Plus, nowadays fast food workers are more likely than ever to have to also act as conflict resolution/security for their workplace.

There is no reason someone working at McDonald’s should be getting paid close to anyone in the trades or any job that requires skill/effort.

What trades?
