    EMT; I’ve heard that I’m about to get a raise to $17/hr but I think it may just be a carrot to keep me there (currently make $16).

      It’s so fucked. I know there are different levels, but the McDonald’s out here in California starts at $20/hr.

        Yep, I could walk into a McDonald’s here and earn at least the same depending on the position. I knew that going into it though.
