I'm sorry until they do the job properly and quit shorting orders I say no f'n way.
 
That telemarketing job is a base pay. Usually start at 10 an hour and you get commission. 20 years ago I worked for a timeshare and would average 18 an hour.
 
If you want more than base pay act it by doing more, doing it right and taking on more responsibility.
 
If anyone needs a pay raise it's waitstaff. $2.33 an hour is just stupid. That hasn't changed in a very very long time. The tips they earn are....
To Insure Prompt Service.
Earn for a job well done, it should not be the wage.
 
Btw over the course of a half a century I did a lot of those jobs on the list. Did they pay the bills? Barely. So I got two and three jobs to fund my pleasures. 4951

In no way do I think Fast food workers should get paid 15.00 an hour. I just didn't realize base pay for nursing was so little. 4951

@RogueHippEE:
Yep not all nurses make the same. I did home health and pay is not on par with responsibility or work involved.
I have a few friends and family that are nurses and could honestly say the do 90% of doctors work.

I don't know of any nurse that would work for that.  The ones I know make way more than that.  Unless they are doing office work, or teaching and no longer want the responsibilities of being a floor nurse.
@Fallon: I agree, one of my friends from Jr and High school is now a LVN, and she makes good money.  I have a  few RN nurses in my family and I can assure you they have a very nice salary for attending college for four years. Most LVN's go back to school and get their RN,  nurse's aids can make up to $15 to $18 an hour. 4951

@bubbleyes72: Agreed, I have a cousin who just started her job as LVN (first job) and she makes well above $15/hr.  It's more like $23/hr.

@aggiebutterfly: And as she get more experience under her belt, her salary will increase. I have a number of family and friends in the medical field, so I am aware of their pay and profession. 4951

Back in the day, many moons ago, I worked as a dish washer, and a bus bot. Made the same rate that wait staff did $1.20 hour, but no tips.That was '75 and helped make the jump to the Military way more inviting. 4951
