Also, I'm saying that ALL wal-mart benefits aren't adequate. Are you a retard? I did say that the pay scale differs, but not the benefits.


I think it boils down to this, the cost of living and inflation have risen steadily in the last ten years, yet minimum wage hasn't. People are having to pay more, and getting paid less.
I had a friend who worked at Applebee's. She was making around $2.13. She grossed around $600-800 a week. With a college degree, I'd LOVE to be making that kind of money.

$2.13 plus tips is plenty adequate.
