- icebraining 8y agoAgreed, fantastic news. And if it raises the prices of fast-food, that's probably a win as well.

- tcbawo 8y agoI have a suspicion this generation of parents is not pushing their children into fast food as a way to learn life skills and responsibility. For most, this is a dead end job with a low ceiling. Although, this has been true for ages. Has anyone ever played Jones in the Fast Lane?
- nsb1 8y agoI dunno...does anyone really believe that the job they had in high school was going to be the start of a lifelong career? For most of us, having a job at that age was more about learning to cope with real life. Learning to work with others, maybe dealing with customers, and allocating whatever wages you earned are all important life lessons that are best learned while you have the support structure of living at home rather than later when it can mean the difference between rent and homelessness.
- icebraining 8y agoBut that's fine: today's young adults can't afford their own homes anyway, so their first job after HS/University still have that support structure.
