Yeah i'm not understanding why thousands and thousands of people in these cities are doing it for $9.73 when they could get a job at starbucks and instantly make much more.
But they are doing it. So things like flexibility must be important. If it was a small number of people we could expect that they might be making some kind of irrational decision. If it's thousands and thousands of people then it's likely an indication that it's the best possible option for people in that situation.
Because their manager at starbucks cuts their hours to 38 a week to keep from paying full time benefits. Plus who has been hiring in the past 3 months?
