- dboreham 5y agoEmployers can't hire at minimum wage now. Signs in every store window offering $21/hr starting, around here.
- MattGaiser 5y agoWhere is "here"?
- Beached 5y agoit's not the same here, but I see 18-20/h all over the rust belt
- t-writescode 5y agoGood. And now that lots of them are offering higher wages, hopefully they won’t treat them terribly either.
- marcosdumay 5y agoIt doesn't really matter what kind of improvement they get. Places get into recession while¹ workers are let go, have hours reduced, or settle into lower salaries. When work conditions are stable, you don't see a recession. When they are improving, you really don't see it. (But yeah, things in the US are confusing enough right now that this may be an exception.) 1 - The causality here is highly complex and circular, so there is no "because of".
