is his sign stuttering?

He can't even spell future. He should appreciate his 8 bucks an hour.

He's getting better than minimum wage.

I'm fairly certain they make that PLUS commission.

I have relatives through marriage named Phi, Long and Do(last name). Only one can merge correctly on the interstate. Swear to God-all three are covered

Plus how old is this guy? If he's still young, then raises will come, if he's good at his job. If he's in his 30s he must really suck at his job and might want to think about a new career. Plus why did he start a family if he wasn't happy with his pay? Also if he's young and just starting out wtf? Does he think he should get paid what people, who have been there way longer than this non spelling fool, gets paid?? This guy is a douche.

Maybe he should find a better job than working at an electronic store, or move.

Why does every job now have to support an entire family?
"I flip hamburgers and am worried that I won't be able to support my family"
"I'm a part time retail sales employee and am worried that I won't be able to support my family"
"I'm a grocery bagger and am worried that I won't be able to support my family"
"I'm a Wal-Mart greeter and am worried that I won't be able to support my family"
None of these jobs are meant to support families. They involve absolutely zero skill and will cease to exist in the immediate future.

Funny how the left uses the minimum wage bullshite when less than 20% of those making minimum wage are supporting "a family." It's also peculiar that the left doesn't give a damn about you and your family if you are a Tea Party person or Christian that won't make a gay couple a wedding cake. They want them punished with government force and their money and property taken from them. (See Chuck Schumers video from Megan Kelly tonight how he and the dems have the IRS to use to silence the Tea Party.)

Because of rights, man...
Tough titty to the employees that get laid off when the minimum wage is raised. Also, tough titty to everyone in the region having to deal with inflation as a result.
"I can't afford to support my family on $8 an hour."
*Luckily doesn't get laid off*
*2 years later*
"Everything is more expensive than it used to be. I can't afford to support my family on $12 an hour."
*Repeat*

Does anyone really give a shite if ping pong can support his family on $8/hour?
Maybe, just maybe, he should work hard to get a job that pays more than $8/hour. And what fricking idiot starts a family making only $8/hour? And what fricking idiot strives to stay in a job that makes only $8/hour?
They are paid minimum wage for a reason. Because they have minimum to no skills. If you want to make more money, develop skills or work harder, and you will get more than $8/hour.
If you can't afford to live on $8/hour, and you refuse to better yourself, and instead bitch about the federal minimum wage, then maybe, just maybe, we should let nature take it's course.

If we paid him 20 bucks an hour, could he learn to spell?

well in our current setup, if his job doesn't support the family, he would get welfare.

Rooking at Phi's shirt, maybe he should pay kindly visit to this website.

So what you're saying is that he doesn't have to worry about supporting his family, the Government will do that for him.
