I had a chat with me mum about a 12 dollar and hour minimum wage. She said that when she started her career as an RN she was making 12 something an hour in 1996. I guessed that minimum wage was around 5.5 dollars an hour. I said mom you now make well north of 35 dollars and hour and minimum wage is around 7.25 and hour. How does that jive? Mom saw my point and conceeded her point.

On it's own a 12 dollar an hour minimum wage seems ridiculous. But when you contrast it to the increase in wages across the board in the past 20 years, I have to say I support it.

Yeah but she has 19 years more experience now. Comparing a new RN's pay vs minimum wage and comparing a 20 year RN's pay vs minimum wage is not the same comparison.

The starting wage for an RN with no experience is near 30 an hour where she works.

So it's increased about a dollar a year.

CNS · « **Reply #381 on:** January 18, 2016, 01:55:51 PM »

It should be. Seems like RN's were underpaid back in the '90's.

SdK · « **Reply #382 on:** January 18, 2016, 01:56:40 PM »

I agree on both fronts.

So nurses with 19 years of experience only earn $5 per hour more than nurses just starting out?

It does seem odd to me. That is only like $10k per year. Seems like 19 years of experience should get you more than that.

There are levels of management you can move into, I am sure, that come with the increase.

Some pretty serious chefs besides Tosi also see the value of cereal—but not as a breakfast food. Ferran Adria was known for his Kellogg’s Paella at El Bulli. He made it by pouring seafood broth over Rice Krispies. A cocktail made from Fruity Pebbles is a hit at Bedrock Fizz, a New York restaurant. Danny Bowien of Mission Chinese, has been known to pair Frosted Flakes with matcha milk. He also makes a dish out of Corn Pops and a bacon-infused soymilk.

I enjoy cooking, but I hate doing dishes more, so I pretty much never cook. Smdh

The Big Train · « **Reply #394 on:** February 26, 2016, 05:33:35 PM »

I rough ridin' hate doing the dishes

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #395 on:** February 26, 2016, 06:16:39 PM »

no one LIKES doing dishes TBT. The point of that is to show how the demand for convenience above all else has gotten completely bonkers.

mocat · « **Reply #396 on:** February 26, 2016, 06:16:51 PM »

did not realize other generations enjoyed doing dishes. feels pretty good to know that i'm not a freak show boomer or whatever who looks forward to doing dishes

Mrs. Gooch · « **Reply #397 on:** February 26, 2016, 06:18:00 PM »

I would much rather do dishes than laundry.

The Big Train · « **Reply #398 on:** February 26, 2016, 06:18:47 PM »

I mean it's not like I don't do dishes you guys, can't I just give my two cents and not be looked down upon?
