Today I had to go to a stafff meeting at work and guess what I found out? I found out that apparently they are raising minimum wage AGAIN...didn't they just do that like twice in the last two years? Yeah...apparently it's now going up to $7.35 and when I was 17 I got $5.15 for like three years straight. (well I got like a .20 cent raise by the end) So when I have working teenagers I'll have to say "well, you know I got $5.15 when I worked in high school so $12.15 is nothing to complain about." Haha...actually it probably won't go that high...but it could if they keep raising it every year.

Crazy! And you are probably right, it could easily end up that high. I think some places (California for sure) already pay that much just because of the cost of living!
At least if I have to have a minimum wage job, I'll get paid more than a few cents. :)
