Here they pay in excess of $15 an hour for regular workers. So couple
would make in excess of $30 an hour.

According to glassdoor the average for associates is more like $11 and
you don't break the $15 barrier until you are some kind of supervisor.
California may be the exception, along with Hawaii, Alaska and parts
of New York.,

McD's pays $10.50 to start most urban places in California. And seems as
if the Mexican's they are able to hire, as they work, also can do math
better than the American kids.

It is actually pretty hard to find a minimum wage job here in Florida
and the ones you see are truly just day labor for people who may not
finish working out the week.

At my wife's club, the only minimum wage full time workers are making
double or triple that in tips. Some make lots more.
The "cart barn" is splitting about $500 a day in season from the tip
jar. (starters, bag boys and rangers) plus whatever cash they pocket
directly. It is against policy but not rare.
Most of the rangers and starters would do it for the free golf alone.
That is worth $50-100 a round in season depending on where they would
play.

Day labor here wants $15-20 an hour. $10 minimum for baby sitter.
