$18/hr adjusted for inflation. Almost a living wage back then. And unlikely to be paid today.

- lotsofpulp 6y agoJanitors are able to demand $18+/hour in SoCal, plus benefits in some companies.
- chrisseaton 6y agoYou're able to demand anything you want anywhere... but you're not likely to get it.
- lotsofpulp 6y ago“Able to demand” colloquially means they are getting it.
- dehrmann 6y agoLA County minimum wage is $15 per hour for businesses with more than 25 employees.
- Rebelgecko 6y agoRancho Cucamonga is only subject to the state minimum wage ($13 IIRC, although it probably goes further than $15 would in many of the unincorporated parts of LA county)
- dehrmann 6y agoIt's also 5 miles from LA county, so wages should be halfway competitive.
- Rebelgecko 6y agoWhat's kinda funky is that the LA County minimum wage only applies to Unincorporated areas, so if you're in the city of Pomona or wherever the minimum wage is still $13
- SllX 6y agoMakes sense. Cities are not subsidiaries to the county in California.
