[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it's not going to go well for your wife if she requests a 50% raise and cites increased minimum wage as the reason. What is her job?[/quote] Why wouldn't it go well? She will now only make a few dollars more per hour than a high school kid who pushes carts at a grocery store. She's an administrator in HR.[/quote] This is my field. These jobs are incredibly easy to fill. Every opening gets hundreds of applicants. No, she doesn’t deserve more. [/quote] There are many fields with lots of job applicants..[/quote] And that results in downward wage pressure[/quote] Exactly. The existence of a survival-level wage floor in no way changes the value of her work. She’s welcome to quit and work at McDonald’s if the extra effort and stress (hahaha) of her admin job isn’t worth it. [/quote]
