50 SHADES OF GREY: A GOOD DAY TO DIE GREYER

DOUBLE THE SWORDS, DOUBLE THE FUN
yes to the first and have no idea on the second. i don’t really follow celeb stuff, baby’s name is Kaidence Donda West.
wow. I didn’t think that was real.
I just need to say that the people in this article are asking for $15/hour. FIFTEEN DOLLARS. A receptionist will make like $12, and they actually have to know how to use certain computer programs. And the fast food workers on strike are already making at least $9. Sweetie, I know it’s not a living wage, but fast food doesn’t require any real skills. I have a bachelor’s degree and can barely find employment. AND I worked in fast food for FLORIDA’S minimum wage, which was $7.25 (and went up to $7.31 while I was working there whoa). Fast food isn’t a particularly fun or lucrative line of work for the average person, but it’s not MEANT to provide a living wage. You need skills for that. I can understand maybe asking for $10, but even that’s bordering on entitled for a no-skill entry-level job, especially when people in your line of work in other areas are making almost $2 less than you are. plus, it’s a minor pay raise and a large cost for the employer, so they cut back hours and raise prices to compensate.
tl;dr I get wanting more money, truly I do, but there are other jobs out there and yo need to understand your job’s place on the employment scale.

Oh dear.
And you tagged it with #entitlement. /sigh.
I WORKED FOR MINIMUM WAGE. I know what it’s like. It stinks. but also you don’t need many qualifications to work at a fast food joint. I don’t mean to come off as heartless, but asking for $15/hour is actually crazy.
Now. Would I like for minimum wage to be a living wage? Yes. I have expressed that desire in the past. But it would take a long time for the economy to adjust to such a standard. Fast food companies would have to like double their wages - and as I said before, they cut hours and raise prices to compensate for increased expenses.
$15/hour is crazy? Reality check: federal minimum wage is currently $7.25 an hour. That wage is actually lower than when the minimum wage was decades ago, when adjusted for inflation. If the minimum wage had been adjusted over the decades to account for inflation and several other economic realities, including worker productivity, the minimum wage would be just over $21/hour — so your “crazy” estimate is still too low.
As for the “cut hours and raise prices” nonsense — as well as the conservative argument that raising the minimum wage would lead to lost jobs — San Francisco has one of the nation’s highest minimum wages (at more than $10 an hour), and it also has California’s lowest unemployment rate.
So there goes that talking point.
ok, that’s all well and good. but I’m trying to point out that getting to that ideal of $21/hr is not going to happen overnight. maybe someday it’ll happen, and that would be great! but demanding a 50% or 100% pay raise immediately, in this economy, is what’s crazy. sorry, that’s what I meant. at this time, making $8 or $9 is just reality. we can change it, but not all at once without repercussions.
economics is called the dismal science for a reason!
hey did they ever name kim kardashian’s baby?

We as a society really need to stop romanticizing the idea of “needing” romantic partners and “not being able to live without them” because it is incredibly unhealthy and leads people to wind up in unhealthy situations of dependency or feeling dependent and not thinking to change that mindset because it seems romantic
