MarkT2256 Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I found a very interesting chart on the minimum wage rates in the United States. What intrested me were the money rates. Connecticut will have the highest minimum wage at $7.10Kansas will have the lowest minimum wage at $2.65The average minimum wage in the US is about $6.00 That sucks if you live in Kansas Source:http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME! Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 yah, i remember when it was $4.25 back when i was working at mcdonalds, which was about ten years ago. it was one of my many fastfood jobs when i was a teenager. slowly it started to climb, and, at the last job i worked at where i was getting minimum wage, it had reached $6.25. that was 3 years ago, i think. i have no idea what it is now. well, i'll cross my fingers and hope i never do.

Alpha Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I thought it was a law in the US that the minimum wage can't be less than $6 for a regular hourly job? Anyways Mcdonald's now pays people $7 an hour, I remember seeing the sign infront of the drive-thru window. However the people who make the worst amount of money I think is Trash Man's, but I am not exactly sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
