Any worker with a bit of work ethic will get raises and make more than minimum wage. Back in the day, I started at minimum wage at a gas station. Since I showed up when I was scheduled, I was better than most of the people they hired, and soon got raises and benefits. I had to work overtime to make ends meet, but guess what - I was young and just starting out and that's the way it is.
But why should it be necessary to get raises just so you don't have to work overtime, or multiple jobs, to make ends meat?
