I mean it is kinda stupid effort doesnt correlate to pay. I have a cushy office job and even as an intern make more than someone in retail. I could not handle something as demanding as retail or food service work

it's unfortunate, but it's also the reality of markets.

but why should pay be correlated with effort anyway? If I work really hard digging a hole and filling it back up, to no one's benefit, why should I be paid for that hard work?

Your replaceability is more relevant to your wages than anything else.
Chances are good your job description has some qualifications (bullshit or not) that severely limits the number of available applicants. Meanwhile, a retail job can take pretty much anyone off the street who doesn't have a face or neck tattoo, and there's a line several dozen deep for that job.

it's incredibly stupid, that's not what pay is based on
anyone can go outside with a hammer and build a house with a foreman
fewer people can be that foreman
even fewer people can perform neurological surgery
even fewer people can dunk from the free throw line or hit 45+ dingers a year or run a fortune 500 company as a senior executive
