I'm no genius, barley graduated from high school, but I showed up for work, early. Worked hard, took an interest in doing better, learned the business. Was trustworthy, did my drugs at home, never showed up drunk. Went from grunt to sales, to asst mgr, to mgr of shit locations, to mrg of the biggest and busiest locations, to regional manager, to store owner, to multiple store owner. Was such a good store owner was elected president of franchise steering committee for over 200 locations. Made a shit load when company was sold.

So yea, I know about grunts working for minimum wage. My starting pay was irrelevant because I sure as hell wasn't going to be at that level for long. For those that can't move up for one reason or another that are still excellent employees of course they should make more. Most will. But the ones that don't want to work hard and contribute? Doesn't matter what you pay them they won't be worth it.
