TranscriptA tweet saying "100k a year to take someone's order at Taco Bell . Totally makes sense.". It has a reply saying "Where the hell did you get that number? If someone's working enough hours to make that on $15 an hour, they deserve it. $15 an hour, a person working 40 a week makes $31,200 a year." the reply has 2 likes.

Are they saying that someone actually makes 100k at Taco Bell or are they one of those dipshits that are threatened by the idea of a Taco Bell employee making 100k/year as if a job already paying 100k/year wouldn't have the bargaining power to get even more?

the top Managers (both of them) earn $100k\year I'm sure. But not the commot person.

if I'd had stayed at mcdonalds I'd still be making more per year than I do now as a staff engineer - but I'd also have a few dozen stores under me and no control large parts of my life.
