[QUOTE="Pstmstr, post: 4136376, member: 51164"] The thing that I find interesting is a place like Crest. They start their employees at a pretty low rate but seem to have pretty good retention, very clean stores, some of the lowest prices, and seem to promote from within. I always get greeted at the door, greeted by the checker, and have a pleasant experience shopping there. Compare that to Walmart just down the road. Same thing with Chick Filet versus McDonalds. Work ethic and compensation have always kind of been a weird interest of mine. When I did supervise people I had great employees and I had those who spent more effort to avoid work than it would have taken just to do the job. I tried my best to appreciate and reward the good ones and help the bad ones find a place they liked better. I don't mean to imply that all people who work as cashiers are bad. Minimum wage was originally intended for people just starting employment. Unfortunately those at some places are making and have made poor choices in their lives. You guys are right though, at least they are working. I guess I should try to be more understanding. I tend to see things as black and white. [/QUOTE]
