I put up an ad for a cashier. Pay starts at $8 an hour. Easy job. I get this call from an effing r****d who asks me why i am paying so low for cashier. Claims that mcdonalds will pay him $8.25 an hour. Says hes entitled to at least that since mcdonalds will give him that. I tell him to piss off and go work there then. He calls me back and says that since minimum wage will be $9 an hour in ny in a year, thats how much he should get paid now. Seriously what kinda idiots are being raised these days? I couldnt have ever imagined making a call like that when i was 20. This all happens right during the rox game too
You are mad at an enterprising young man who is trying to negotiate a better wage? Come on man, respect for him for trying - no harm in asking. DD
Are you sure he wasn't trolling you to make the point that $8.25 an hour is too low for minimum wage? Especially with recent food worker protests.
His negotiation tactic: "This not right. You pay so little, like you taking advantage. Mcdonalds pays 8.25. You should start me off at there since i could get that from them."
Didnt consider that. Minimum wage in ny is 7.25. They gt started at 8 at my place and bumped to 9 after 6 months, all of which was detailed in the ad. Just his damn nasal voice whining to me about me taking advantage of ppl right when we were getting our butts whupped. Effing a
Uhhh, I don't see the problem here. He is negotiating a wage as DD mentioned. You can't negotiate for a cashier position? Signed, 24 year old
Meh, probably no more stupid or entitled than the baby boomer generation that ruined his generation's future.
Oh I'm sorry do you want these lazy ****ers to work for free? Damn the plebeians wanting to maximize their profit just like you a business owner would want to as well. Its Capitalism, deal with it.
Sounds like a sharp kid. You obviously should hire a kid who doesn't give a **** rather than the kid that does. Smart move.
Actually for minimum wage jobs it's better to hire the less intelligent ones. Many of the smarter/younger workers know that these jobs are easy to get so they'll start stealing and scamming.
I plan on demanding $10-$12 an hour for my vastly important internship this summer which will consist of entering data in spreadsheets and printing things for people
1 person does this, and you call the entire generation "supid." Uh, bro, I think you're "supid" for not even having an average sample size to go off of.
The dude was asking for .25 more per hour. Seriously, a whole quarter. Is that extra $2 extra a days really worth ****ting on an entire generation?
