maybe I'm wrong but you don't have to work for minimum wage.
Have always told my boys at the end of your shift, someone is gonna feel like they got screwed.
Whatever your wage, make sure the boss thinks he got way more value for your efforts than what he paid.
If he's a good boss you're apt to get a raise. If he's a bad boss, and you bust hump and don't see anything for your trouble, go talk to his biggest competitor.
you may have to start at minimum wage, but I know enough biz owners if you're willing to bust hump they'll gladly pay you.
but folks don't want to buy a pig in a poke.
