Entry level jobs are for teenagers.

McDonalds made the stupid mistake of hiring adults to do them. And now those adults are demanding a living wage.

McDonalds should go back to hiring high school kids, who need pocket money and not rent money.

The immigrants should go back where they came from if they can’t cut it here. They need an education before they deserve more pay.

If they can’t find a job in their ‘education field’, welcome to America in 2016. Should have stayed where you were.

McDonald’s I think realized their error. We’ve seen some recent TV ads where they talk about McDonald’s as the world’s best first job.

One of my boys works at Chick-Fil-A. He’s only been there a few months, but he’s proven dependable and they are giving him greater responsibilities. That’s what a first job is all about.

First of all "minimum wage" - so called - was never meant to raise a family on. It was a starter job mostly for teens so they could learn the basics of just showing up for work on-time, how to get along with co-workers and their superiors.

Second, I USED to go to a McDonalds for early coffee and some mornings there would be a crowd of older folks standing at the door. When asked why they were not open 20 min past the posted opening hour they laugh and say the "English Interpreter has not yet shown up" .

Third, you do realize that not a one of these employees could count back change to you if the "computer register" did not show how much was due back!!! And if you really want to drive them crazy when the total comes to $4.07, offer them $5 and a quarter.

Most teens these days are too busy being toted from one class or activity to another to be bothered with a job. It’s a shame, because kids would learn more at a job than they do in their classrooms with leftist teachers. Too many parents do not make their kids grow up. No wonder so many college students are aimless, whiny, spoiled brats.
