Think about it , if you work in macca's , woolies , coles etc and you were getting paid lets say $7 an hour . Dont you think that its slave labour ???

eg. Macca's

Arrive , clean the fucken toilet , 20 minute job = $2.30 for cleaning a pile of smelly shit . Flip 60 burgers = $ 7

Its even worse if your 14 and 9 months and working a 3 hour short ass shift on the busiesst day of the week . I reckon if you wanna work a lot to get $$$ work in a factory where u get paid $15 an hour

Go work in a factory, and see how you cope and how tired you feel compared to working at maccas flipping burgers.

For $15 its not even worth factory work.

Most big places like coles myer, maccas, etc, and other retail places will not pay you over $10/hr until your 17.

most places not requiring much professional skills hire really young people cuz it's cheaper to pay young people. i guess it's good in a sense cuz people like us can get jobs more easily and gain experience, but then what happens when you get too old to get hired and you have no degree/s, past jobs, etc.???

Youre an ignorant shit head. Firstly, the minimum work is 3 hours. Secondly the slave labour looks really good on a reference.

Now, the only people that hate maccas are narrow minded idiots. I've seen too many people go to maccas that are obviously too young. They dont understand the labour for money system. Such as the skanks that.

Also, 'toilet cleaning' is really just mopping the floor. Or im just lazy :p

i think anything under $10/hr for ANYONE, regardless of age, is slave labour.

except for that little 10 year old looking faggot who works at castle towers maccas. god how i wanna punch him.

i got $10/hr (or thereabouts) at hoyts when i was 15 and i was damn happy about it, considering that i was working at bakers delight at the same time for $6/hr and my newsagent job before that had been $5.50/hr

i think you should be happy with what you've got... not everyone CAN work or gets the OPPORTUNITY to work - you have an opportunity to become a little independent and responsible. Simple strategy - if you don't like the wage or the work, don't do it!

Yeah i get that, but they are still doing the same work, so technically shouldnt they get the same amount for it.
