Its worth it to keep hard working trained people. many fast food places and restaurants have people that make more than minimun wage. the problem is you cant hire and train at high wages, for every one spot i have open at the restaurant i usually hire 3 people knowing that 2 will not work out for some reason or another. Its hard to pay for all of that. But 6 months to a year in, its worth it to pay people more, they know their stuff, they are more of an asset to the company, and you wouldn't want to loose them.

So just to clarify this for myself. In your situation(+ without minimum wage) you would hire 3 at a super low entry wage and once the cream rises you pay that person a good wage(but obviously not equal to the total of the 3). Am I following this right?

Yes. And the 2 that dont make it will have a better chance at their next job from the experience.

 

Edit: And if all 3 are good workers, we would try and keep all 3 . good help is hard to find
