Afew years ago I worked in fastfood for about 3 months while I was inbetween jobs, and for some reason a lot of my family felt the need to tell me that they respect me for continuing to work. I guess since I have a 4 year degree it seemed like it was beneath me, but I wasn't ever embarrassed.

I would be. Minimum wage is for teens and people who never worked. If you are 30 and getting paid minimum wage, you dun goofed.

Whered you get that idea? This is what the minimum wage was established for:



Anyway, the majority of min. wage workers are 25+ years old.

No, however they embarrass themselves if they try to live above their means

Embarrassed? No. But if they can find higher paying work, then they should aim to move up. You don't want to be stuck at minimum wage your whole life.

Not at all. They should feel proud of the work they are doing to contribute.

I believe that the eminent Dr. Cox as a quote for this exact situation. It goes:

"Wrong wrong wrong wrong, wrong wrong wrong wrong. You're wrong. You're wrong. You're wroooooong."

Sung to the tune of church bells.

I doubt most of them are embarrassed. But it amazes me how some can be in the workforce for a decade or more and not have enough experience at anything to earn more than mw. Even McDonald's advertises more pay based on experience.
