[quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand the concept of a livable wage being needed for fast food workers. Maybe it’s different in California, but where I live in Ga, the fast good workers are exclusively teenagers. They live at home and go to high school or college. The majority work part time. What is the point of paying them a livable wage that’s high enough to support a family on? Shouldn’t higher wages only be paid if the skillset or industry dictates that? I have worked in restaurants and Fast food, and that is THE MOST low skilled industry I have ever personally experienced. Have you seen the toilets in a McDonald’s? These workers do the absolute barest minimum, and barely even do that. You’re lucky if they even show up for every scheduled shift each week. Why should they be paid more than their skill set is worth??[/quote]
