Well, given that 90% of the students here in Waterloo are Asian math students, I would say our math skills are on average, higher in my city than in a lot of others :p

Hrmm, I'd like to get a bump from the increase too... i mean Washington used to be about 40% higher than the min. anyways. :p
I got a 13% raise my last review though... I guess I can't complain that much. |

probably with math like that |
Ok I can see how you got the figure, but that would be the equation to find out what percent 2.10 is of 7.25. |

from $5.15/hr to $7.25, an increase of 140%, those individuals who make over minimum wage but are paid hourly should too get a 140% increase in pay raise as well, to reflect the standard of living increase.
for example, if you're making say 8 bucks an hour, it would make sense that you should be paid $11.68/hr now.
dont you think?
i mean i work at best buy. i get paid 12.50 an hour which isnt that good of a wage.
but closing the gap between fast food worker and techno geek?
doesnt seem fair. |
yes, your boss should pay u more because poor people cannot afford food |
