The only blue collar wage increase I've ever received was 3%.
Not much of a mathematician, I'm guessing a 7+% increase on 5$ is what? .. about $0.30?

Well, it may not seem a lot but if you take into consideration that the national annual raise average runs at around 4-6%(depending on job and industry), that 7.7% increase is quite generous.
