Re: McDonald's boss says he's "proud" of wages as thousands of workers call for a ris
EMTs only get twelve bucks an hour on average?
That's outrageous.
Burger flippers getting minimum wage is OK by me. That sort of job should be staffed by teens making pocket money anyway. EMT should be a well paid semi professional job, IMO, so that quality people are attracted to the work.
This of course as his company starts testing workers that don't require absurd pay levels for doing nothing...
Lets put this into persepective. Burger flippers want $15/hour. Do you guys know how much you pay your EMT's staffing your community ambulance? The median is around $12/hr. No wonder so many of us get burned out so fast.
So consider that. All these people fighting for burger flippers...when 911 isn't even properly paid. No one's fighting for us...and you actually need us...unlike the burger flippers lol. Puts the world into some real perspective.
