Thanks that there is smart people here @Fitzydog

I've found that (except for my current job which has fixed position wages and extra bonuses for every ticket) you literally just go to the boss and say "hey I've been working my ass off, can I get a bit extra for my effort" never gets you fired, I even got a raise with an asshole boss

@Angus I made more than 10 bucks working this past hour does that count?

@Angus Good job!

@PartlyAwesomeAre you going to acknowledge the idea that people negotiate their wages on a regular basis?

raising the minimum wage won't fix anything, it's been tried, turns out giving everyone more money makes everything cost proportionally more

people can do that if they want

and nothing changes

but the boss can literally always say no if they wanted

People.dont.negociate
