And $30/hr doesn't even seem all that high for a high-cost-of-living area like NY.
And yet it's almost double the minimum wage.
I read this as minimum wage needing to be higher, not snow shoveling wages needing to be lower.
Absolutely. My point was more that even though it doesn't seem much for NY it's still way better than doing minimum wage. Anyone doing minimum wage would love to make that much because the minimum wage is so low.
Its something closer to 400% of the federal minimum wage and more like 600% of what some states have on the books. Minimum wage has barely moved since I was in high school.
It's an infinitely higher percentage than zero, isn't it?
So is the increase in my weekly grocery bills. What’s your point?
Anything is an infinitely higher percentage than zero. That's how math works. Don't know what you're trying to get at with that.
They could have paid zero.
Why?
Ok, now you're being obtuse on purpose. Goodbye.
