yep , grocery baggers and 'customer service personnel' (high school kids) earn a minimum wage of $8 an hour in California for after school and Saturday jobs , that plus a $5 tip 3 or 4 times an hour for loading and tying down a couple of sheets of plywood and a couple of 2 X 4s or a few bags of cement at the local Home Depot teachs the kids the value of money and hard work .
And no its not exploitation of the precious little darlings , most are on the local high school football team (built like the proverbial brick out-houses) and have never missed a meal in their life
