Where did I say I'm disrespectful to those people? I'm not. They're people just like I am. No matter the occupation, I treat everyone the same.

It still doesn't change the fact that stocking shelves is a low end job, and to expect top pay for such jobs is silly and irresponsible on the employees part. Those are unskilled jobs for unskilled people, such as high school teens, college students, people looking to make "extra cash", the elderly looking for "something to do". If these people want more money, it is available, all they need to do is learn a skill and take some initiative.

When a college kid is perfectly happy with $8 an hour why would the business hire a 35 year old mother of 2 expecting $10 an hour for the same job? Thats ridiculous.
