You'd need to be in a large city for Home Depot to pay that, and even then in places like Austin and especially Boise, many people make less than that per hour.

You'd need to be in a large city for Home Depot to pay that, and even then in places like Austin and especially Boise, many people make less than that per hour. $10 an hour after a bachelors degree isn't uncommon in economically depressed parts of the US.
- Spooky23 8y agoI drove by a Home Depot near Utica, NY advertising $15/hr a few months ago. Utica isn’t exactly a big city or prosperous place.
- Xeronate 8y agoNo you don't. I'm from a small town in Ohio and my first job was at Home Depot for $12 an hour 6 years ago.
- zenexer 8y agoMinimum wage is around $12 here in MA, if I recall correctly. There’s been talk of increasing it to $15.
- cannonedhamster 8y agoIt just became $11 in 2017 and that's only for non-service workers. Tipped workers still only make $3.75 and STILL have to pay taxes as if they were fully compensated. Tipping needs to go.
