I am going to college though, and like 90% of the classes I have taken have been a total waste of time, so him not graduating from high school really doesn't mean anything in my opinion.

I will admit though that wrapping cosmetics for 28 an hour sounds odd, but if you could swing that job you wouldn't be complaining.

Supply and demand, there is plenty of jobs at fast food places, why would they pay you a ton of money when they can hire just anyone. Same for jobs like construction and what not, when I was 16 I used to work as a tape and bedder and I'd work like a damn dog, and only make 200 a week. **** just rolls down hill.. ;/

yeah, people with specific and specialized skills should get a bit more. sorry you only got 200 a week. . man. i used to work at a theme park and they worked my like a derby horse i swear. but i got about 300 a week. so saying that you only got 200 made me sad.

like a derby horse?.....really?

Well. I can agree with the post above about how wrapping cosmetics can be weird.....but I'd do it if I could get paid that much!

Everyone should be respectful for whatever kind of pay they get, some work hard and get minimum wage, and others may work less and get more, honestly it's not about how much you earn per hour, but the work quality you do, and your satisfaction of your own income, if you're not happy with the money you earn, Give it to me. (the money)

Love what you got to understand there though is that his 28 bucks an hour has to cover alot more than your 5 bucks does.

i work as an inspector for a company that makes aluminum cylinders....scuba tanks, medical tanks, industrial tanks, etc

everyone there is union, and with all the union rules, people barely have to work, and make $14-30 per hour

people work at our general inspection facility and do all the work i do, and maybe more, but only for $9/hour.

if i was making $10 hour at my current job, where i do nothing but push buttons and play on the Zune and the computer, i would be making much less, which would still be worth it, and the cost of so many aluminum cylinders would be lower
