With Day of Protests, Fast-Food Workers Seek More Pay

Minimum wage where I am is 10.25$, 9.60$ for students.

I do think that it is a respectable amount though, any more and hiring would no longer be worth it. Especially following current trends, considering that supermarkets have self checkout, factories use robots now, and retail no longer needs nearly as many employees as before.

I don't work minimum wage though, I got my Comptia A+, Network +, Security + certifications. I make 11$ an hour in the office, 35$ per house call.
