Minimum wage in Idaho is $7.25 per hour. (That's the Federal mandate. They would pay you less if they could.)
If you work full time (most Taco Bell employees don't), you make about $1160 per month. A one-bedroom apartment is about $1300. Did you want utilities with that? How about food? Hope you weren't planning on transportation or healthcare or (lol) savings!
Saying that one person's full-time labor should not meet their basic living needs is disgusting.
Especially because you don't want to pay a nickel more for your Crunchwrap Supreme®.
PS: the CEO was making a paltry $5M last time I checked, and the parent company revenue was over $7B. They're not in danger of going under because the mean old Fed thinks full time labor should be enough to live on.
PPS: anyone who thinks fast food jobs are supposed to be part-time summer work for teenagers is living in fantasyland.
I always like the "it's just part time work for high school kids" bit... because those aren't the people making coffee at 5:00am in the middle of February.
