OK first of all it has changed ONE not 3 times. In florida it goes up every year because 3 years ago they got smart and decide to make minimum age be tied to inflation and it gets adjusted yearly. That way you don't go 10 years then have to jack it up to high.

a lot of webmasters will quit adult every year now on July 24th for "Wendy's"

he-fox · 07-24-2007, 06:50 PM

"Denny's" is now the new TGP

stev0 · 07-24-2007, 06:54 PM

Minimum wage is $5.15 in the US right now???? No wonder the middle class is disappearing... Business's have people working for basically free and are reaping the profits.

tony286 · 07-24-2007, 06:56 PM

I love it takes two years to go from a really shitty wage to just a shit wage.

bingo, and they want CHEAPER labor! go figure. I cant dig up the exact stats right now cuz I am buzzed. but it is something like CEOs made 30 to 70 times the avg worker in the 70s. No it is over 9000 times more.
