I’m just curious what the average hourly pay is for retail and food service employees. I work at Panera and make $7.50 per hour. Anyone out there who works a similar job who wouldn’t mind telling how much they make?

minimum wage
It really depends on where you live.
I live in Canada.
I worked last summer for $9.50/hr.
It all depends on the area you live in. Also what minimum wage is, as well as your age and experience.
That depends on the job title and the demand in your area. On a recent trip to Hawaii, we saw ads for workers at fast-food places offering well above minimum wage, because there just aren’t enough workers available there. Generally, however, retail and food service entry-level jobs pay minimum wage. However, as you move up the corporate ladder, you can do much better than that. For example, McDonalds CEO James A. Skinner made more than $9 million last year — $4.5 million in salary and $5 million from exercising stock options he had been granted.
It’s usually pretty close to the minimum wage in your area. maybe 2 or 3 dollars higher after a year or two.
