Had the displeasure of dealing with McKinsey as they performed the legal equivalent of extortion under the guise of "public health" during COVID. Crazy just how deep their tendrils go when it comes to steering public funds and policy.

You missed the opportunity to say "ManageMint"!

Yes, that's what I mean. The stated request was that trans people just want to be left alone. Most people would be happy to do that. I agree with you.

I think a lot of people would be happy to settle into this camp. Happy to oblige but allowed to keep their opinion without being villainized.

Not wealthy nor in a wealthy area but I live in a pretty densely populated state so I just don't see it. Even convenience store jobs pay $18-20/hr here.

I've been working since 14 and that may have been the only year I made the minimum wage too. I don't generally look at this sort of data so thank you for sharing your anecdotes!

Yikes, hope things are better now! Thanks for sharing!

Understandable, I was mainly curious about the "large corporations" but it seems there are a few good examples provided. Thanks!

Maybe it's a regional thing then, those types of jobs in my area all earn more than the federal minimum wage and even the stage minimum which is $15/hr now.

That said, aside from DG, those other companies are franchise operations. Still, thank you for honestly answering and not just resorting to name calling.

I could never hear the name Elon for the rest of my life and I would survive just fine. Just remember, soon the internet will mention nobody but Trump as well. I hate it

This shouldn't be an unpopular opinion. We should be holding all appointed politicians liable.

Ya, I would say I lean that direction on many issues but the party is such a disaster. I have to think it's intentional how ineffective they are.
