I'm just here sipping on my coconut water, watching American politics unfold lol

@The Librarian isn’t minimum wage in the states already $7.50 or something like that?

And then taxes are taken out of that?

@Local Doomguy wages changes from State to State. The Federal minimum wage is set on a National level.

@sleepysclmsft why would you drink coconut water?

You didn’t answer my question. You dodged it.

@insanelyvain cause I'm Indian, and coconut water is a staple in South India?

It tastes the same as regular water that was spit out by someone

Fucking epic, that plasma shit

@Local Doomguy i didnt because wages differ state to state.

Ew why would you describe it like that?

You never had it with coconut chunks?

Cuz that's how it tastes

There's a State minimum wage and a Federal minimum wage

Two different things

Alright then, what’s the federal minimum wage?

@insanelyvain fuck you imma keep sipping that shit

7.50 is what I heard

I mean

Still we pay close to UK is in taxes

1 ewwwww

and we get A Little more for our money

2 do as you please xD

@insanelyvain fuck you

Just....I won't be able to drink it actually anymore

Ew

God

You ruined that shit for me

Given that taxes are already taken out of 7.50, I’d say having a wage increase that allows you to keep all of the remaining 7.20 is around about what people are looking to get. You can’t tell me the government takes less than 30 cents an hour.

Oh come on you know I'm kidding

I know

anybody wanna VC

@Local Doomguy under the FLSA it is $7.25, those not covered under FLSA it is $5.25

But oof, what you said literally ruined my mental taste for it

@Carcrash91 sorry man no dataa

7.20 an hour is still up from that regardless of the taxes taken out.

No need to explain why 🙂

Huh?

FLSA is the Federal Labor Standards Act

its an offer i am in VC

Anyways, @insanelyvain god I won't forgive you

God won't Either
