- The argument that certain jobs are inherently worth less than others fail to recognize the interdependence of all roles within a business. Working part-time at my local Dairy Queen has given me firsthand experience of the challenges associated with a $9 /hour wage. Despite putting in 36 hours (about 1 and a half days) weekly, the paycheck hovers around $250-$260, highlighting a stark economic reality. This scenario underscores the pressing need for a reassessment and increase in the minimum wage, as it fails to adequately address the financial strains faced by individuals in low-wage jobs. Living on a $9 /hour wage creates a significant economic strain. Necessities become luxuries, and individuals find themselves on the brink of financial instability. The meagre earnings often lead to a reliance on government assistance programs, highlighting a systemic issue where businesses are not providing sufficient compensation for the labor they benefit from.

State University employs a large number of graduate students to work as teaching assistants. The teaching assistants often complain about their work. They feel that faculty and administrators demand too much. A common complaint is their low wages. The graduate students frequently point out that they do much the same work as faculty members, yet they receive only a very small percentage of the pay that faculty members receive. They also claim that faculty members frequently treat them unfairly. Teaching assistants are often asked to do large amounts of grading in very short time periods. Many also feel that faculty members are not very good at communicating expectations. In response to the dissatisfaction of the teaching assistants, a local union representing public workers has begun efforts to organize a labor union.

County General Hospital is a 200-bed facility located approximately 150 miles outside Chicago. It is a regional hospital that draws patients from surrounding farm communities. Like most hospitals, County General faces the difficult task of providing high-quality care at a reasonable cost. One of the most difficult obstacles encountered by the hospital is finding and retaining qualified nurses. The annual turnover rate among nurses is nearly 100 percent. A few of the nurses are long-term employees who are either committed to County General or attached to the community. Employment patterns suggest that many of the nurses who are hired stay for only about six months. In fact, County General often appears to be a quick stop between graduation from college and a better job.

She receives an offer of a $28,000 salary, including benefits from COLLEGE CORP, from an entry-level marketing position that seems like a perfect fit. She is thrown off by the salary they are offering and knows that it is lower than what she was hoping for. Instead of panicking, she takes the advice of her mentor and does a little research to know what the market range for the salary is for her area. She feels better after doing this, knowing that she was correct and the offer is low compared to the market rate. After understanding more about the offer and the rates, she goes back to the HR representative and asks for her preferred rate of $32,500, knowing the minimum that she would accept is $30,000. Instead of going in for her lowest amount, she started higher to be open to negotiations with the company.

The middle managers, who largely look after staff performance and development, all welcome this policy.
