    in the South that is still a high paying job at $13 an hour

    why don’t you ring some digits and find out

    some places down here do pay more of course such as a Wal-mart stocker at about $17 but the daytime employees there still make less than that and some plumbing companies do pay more here around some close to Wal-mart pay but you have to drive farther out to find those which eats into maintenance/gas

    sources: patrons that are in front of my counter at work a lot more are open to talk about how much they make than you would imagine maybe it is just because of my job

      I want the US government to have your friends’ backs when they want to unionize and bargain for higher wages and a pension, which is why I’m voting Harris/Walz

          Those rail workers who got the sick leave they wanted after the Biden Admin continued to fight for them?
