Correction, Steve: In California, fast food employees currently make $16.21 per hour. Effective April 1, 2024, those wages will go to $20.00 per hour.

With the kind of blast offers coming through lately, perhaps all those newbies currently taking $40 - $90 signings will soon go work for McDonald's, Taco Bell, Jack in the Box, etc? With the price of everything now, those low fees don't even cover beer money much less rent and groceries!
