Yep, it sure does. That's why most of us do what ever we have to to better ourselves so we can rise above minimum wage.
That being said, why should idiot high school and college kids expect anything else. No experience, very little education, and most with an attitude. I've been on the manager side, and, believe me, that can suck too. :-)
My best friend won a "Silver Spatula" award from McDonalds when he worked there right after college almost 30 years ago. He's now in charge of medical record coding at one of the top 15 hospitals in the country. He keeps the award on the wall in his office to (1) remind him of how far he's come, and (2) to remind him that he never wants to go back there.
At the same time, it is disrespectful for an employer to expect an employee to be availible at any given time but unwilling to give him sufficient hours to support himself. Most of my employers, though, gave me as many hours as I wanted.
