In America a lot of these positions are not full time. Employers like McDonald’s and frito will try to do their best to give “hours” (part time) so that they don’t need to give benefits. So, imagine you’re making minimum wage and you have no benefits from your job and you have to remain in a certain income band in order to qualify for government aid. It’s very hard to take a vacation let alone to just take a Sabbatical and backpack around the world to “find themselves” because they can barely afford to survive. It’a a very hard life.
