I'm sorry the fast food article went over your head. It had nothing to
do with working at a fast food joint and then finding other jobs in
other places. It had to do with the promises made to naive workers by
fast food restaurants, promises that they someday might rise to a
position of significance in the chain and maybe even own a franchise
restaurant. That's bull****. You aren't going to amass a million dollars
working for minimum wage or even double minimum wage.

So no one should work for the minimum wage because they can't make a
million dollars? That's ridiculous. No matter how high you make the
minimum wage it is still the minimum. How much do you think entry
level, low skill jobs should pay? When I was in college I cheerfully
worked at jobs that paid less than the minimum because I was happy to
have the extra pocket money. No one expects to make a career of it
except maybe you.
