How do you feel about the fast food strike in the USA?

It's funny. Everyone always complains about how you can't physically survive and you'll die in a ditch and stuff if you make minimum wage, but it's always been more than enough for me. As long as you have a roommate, don't have kids, and spend your money well, you'll have money left over. Hell, I worked for just a little over minimum wage for a few years and still bought basically all the games and MTG cards I wanted.

If you're supporting a family, then yeah, minimum wage isn't going to cut it. But at that point you shouldn't be working at Taco Bell. As many have already said, it's a job for kids and it pays fine considering.

On another note, I wonder how much they're paying scabs and the moment...

At the moment the average wage of the burger flippers is 9$ an hour. Ive been living in an nice area in a bigger city and making 10bucks an hour with my wife who is making 9$ an hour. We both definitly do more work than people at McDonalds so if they get anything more than me I know where I'm going to try and get a job. Anyway back on topic... We both really only work 20 hours or so a week and are able to afford cell phones, rent, energy bills, insurance and internet... We don't have cable tv and we dont have the fanciest car but hey... its what we can afford

George Zimmerman's wife pleaded guilty and got probation.

 

 

 

*edit*--I'm just messing with ya, Max!  You dominated the arguments in that thread a while back.  Just a little light-hearted jab.
