unfortunately as our economy continues to shed manufacturing and engineering jobs, and we have a government that makes no grand investment in science and technology, these jobs are starting to make up a greater and greater percentage of our overall job market...which may explain the increasing reliance upon government programs.
Thank God so many are calling for the destruction of Unions.
I (seriously) thought Hooters would be well rewarded
Over here McDonalds is not that bad; Iīm not sure what its wage is but Iīve met poeple who worked there and they donīt complain at all. As a matter of fact, itīs even appreciated in a resume, depending on where you apply (and I donīt mean another fast food places).
Interesting read, thanks !

Um, aren't they all minimum wage, entry level jobs in the food industry? This is news how?
I am not. But really....fry cook union? Turn around on most of these jobs is less than 6 months.
EDIT: Besides, what will be their bargaining chip? Their job is designed to be easily replaced. They aren't skilled labor. If someone who scoops ice cream for a living (See numbers 3, 15, 17) strikes, someone with their "Skillset" can be found....anywhere. It isn't like construction where there is a skill set mastered over years, or teaching where there is a relatively lengthy and expensive certification process. There is no leverage with which to collectively bargain.
Most Undesirable Job In America?
What is Rosie O'Donnells Bikini Waxer for a thousand Alex......

Exactly! The majority of folks working there won't be there long enough to be promoted. I worked at a Tim Horton's years ago, and the turnover in employees was very high.
Not to mention fast food franchises have a very bottom-heavy workforce, they don't need a lot of supervisors and managers. So where are you going to get promoted to? Chief burger-flipper?
My kids are working this summer.
As a dishwasher/prep/dessert help, and turndown service /waitress.
High school and college kids. Basically minimum wage, which is what? $8.50 an hour? I can live with that...They aren't supporting families...
