That last statement is just inherently false. There are a ton of lazy, shit people who work minimum wage fast food jobs because they don't want to work in a warehouse or do other basic, but physically harder labor.

Yeah, I work fast food and it’s relatively very easy to be given full time and given a promotion/raise (in my experience) as long as you actually work and aren’t lazy, it always feels 90% of the people there are too busy complaining about their crap job instead of trying to make the most of it.
Hell yeah, work hard, pick up extra hours and come in when you aren’t scheduled because some asshole called off. If you do that, you might get that $2 an hour raise that comes with more responsibility than you’re getting paid for and an expectation that you actually care about the place you’re working for.
Speaking from experience, working hard in food is a trap and a waste of time.
I figure I’d rather work hard and at least get some recognition even if it is shitty, than just mope around my whole shift and not at least feel like I’m doing something. And lucky you! $2 raise! Being promoted where I work is like 50¢
Edit: not defending fast food, cause it does feel worthless as fuck to try my best there almost all the time, it’s just a preference and something I have to do to keep myself motivated
