Yes, a good chef should be making those wages. Probably way more after 9 years.
But when you start your "career" at KFC at age 35, you have to ask yourself after 9 years, just what the hell went wrong in my life?
Did you go to culinary school?
Get some education in another field that pays more than fast food wages?
Did you TRY to make manager?
Hell, ASSISTANT manager?
Did you learn everything about the other jobs at the KFC, so that you were invaluable?
Or did you go to work and did the bare minimum?
A real "go-getter" WOULD have gotten raises.
Plus, under Glorious Leader, there is no recession and high-paying jobs are everywhere.
The news told me so.
This guy. He chose to do nothing to better himself. This is all on him.
