Fight for $15

[dbackjon]

Ok - so first you are saying that fast food is entry level, then you keep expanded who is entry level and not worthy of making a living. Typical 1%.

I'd be willing to wager you don't personally know a single one percenter.

I work for 40 of them.

[AZGrizFan]

LOL. Uh....yes, it is Jon. It doesn't GET any entry-leveler than that.

Uh huh.

Zero experience. Many are hired right out of HS. lowest paying job in the credit union.

That pretty much DEFINES "entry level".

And as 89 said, most don't stay more than 6-8 months before moving on to MSR, loan officer, etc., etc. and making much more than $11/hr.

I go into my credit union once a week. I prefer to walk in rather than drive thru to get a little ass-kissing. I'm often greeted by a "Good Afternoon, Mr. ********". Then I make small talk with the teller that looks like the comedian Ben Bailey. Yeah, some tellers are certainly not the brightest, but they are all warm, friendly, and polite.

I go to McDonalds 5 times a week and those dumb fucks don't recognize me.

Thin air...all you had to say was you got to that number by pulling numbers out of thin air.

What happened to your sense of adventure?

He'd make 11 bucks an hour working for Bandl...

Do you know them or just work for them.

No way I'd hire him

Can we come up with a financial definition of a 1%er here...?

I'm curious if we can all agree what qualifies
$10 Mil in the bank // $50 Mil //or maybe $100 Mil

What's the dividing line of this group we're referencing as the 1%

They all know me. Who do you think they call asking how much cash I am paying them this month (Hint, it is based on their work, and collections, so they have no clue).

Pena, who has worked at McDonald's for 11 years, plans to not show up for her scheduled shift Thursday to join the strike. She said she earns $10 an hour and is on public assistance. Her hours were cut after Chicago's wage increase went into effect, she added.

Your hours will cut? Yea...what makes you think that you and millions of others won't be fired when the wages you fight for push you out?

And 11 years at Mickey D's?

She was just trying to get up the nerve to actually go out there and get a higher paying job...

My sister worked at Mickey D's in the early 90s...on the weekends...while in high school. THAT is who those jobs are meant for. Not people trying to support a family. I get it, you made bad decisions and didn't take your schooling seriously. I get it.

So, since you get it, it's your responsibility to help her support her family

[89Hen]

I assume that's talking annual income? If so, I actually do know quite a few.

Many of the checkers at the grocery store above my office have been there the entire 16 years I've been in this office. They all know me by name even though I pay with cash and don't present a store card that gives them my name. Every time I walk into the SAME bank I've been going to for 16 years, not a single person knows my name and they ask me for my ID every time I bank there.

SHE AIN'T GETTIN NUFFIN!

Spoiler: show

She doesn't need the help. She's a big wig nurse administrator at a hospital and her husband is a partner at an engineering firm.

Yes, annual income.

What, most of the regulars at your golf course?

[89Hen]

What, most of the regulars at your golf course?

I'm surprised at that number, seems low to me.

[bandl]

they ask me for my ID every time I bank there.

I don't think I've ever been ID'd at a bank unless I opened up an account....

[89Hen]

BTW, not that $429,000 isn't a lot of money, but it's really not as much as you think around here when $1,000,000 gets you this...

You're also not black.

I think I've identified your problem.

Rob Iola is a gem of a poster...sharp witted and damned funny.

Of course, he is yet another in a long line of well educated, intelligent, UD posters.
