"Minimum Wage" Is Irrelevant
This is another reason why the whole Minimum Wage debate is stupid.

Some people aren't good enough workers to earn even minimum wage.

However, if you have skills, and are willing to work hard, you can pretty much write your own ticket in many job markets.

$25 hour for a beginning welder - with a $100 "just show up" bonus is not bad money, is it?
