I see you’ve never worked minimum wage jobs before.

There are not “plenty” of unskilled jobs that allow you to set your own hours.

In fact, all of jobs I had accessible to me before I had a degree had ZERO flexibility on hours. You were scheduled (rarely ever during standard 9 to 5 hours), and if you didn’t show up, you were fired.

I would have happily taken a few bucks less than minimum wage for the ability to set my own hours and educate myself. Who are you to tell me I’m being exploited—-as you sit at your 100k+ computer job looking down at me.
