Signs
Your Job is Minimum Wage
In case your postage
stamp-sized paycheck doesn't clue you in on the fact
that you earn minimum wage, here are some other signs.
- The only
requirement for getting the job was that you
have reliable transportation.
- Management
conveniently forgets to tell you about the
company picnic.
- Your lunch
usually comes out of the candy vending
machine.
- The business's
annual COFFEE expense is more than your wages.
- They're
beginning to train DOGS to do your job.
- A resumé was
not necessary.
- Your parking
space? Pick any street.
- Benefits? What
benefits? Who said anything about benefits?
- If in the
unlikely event that you have an office, you
get the oldest furniture in the building.
Often it's older than YOU are.
- In order to go
to the bathroom, you have to have someone
relieve you.
- Your supervisor
laughed behind your back when you showed up
on your first day of work wearing a suit and
tie.
- Petty cash
issues your paycheck.
- Yes, you get
sick leave. You get sick, you leave, for good!
- During the
interview, your boss remarked that you will
gain valuable experience that will be very
helpful when you move on.
- You have the
sneaking suspicion that the only reason you
got the job was because your application was
first on the stack.
