I can tell you that even in CT, an hour from NYC, grocery stores are not paying anywhere near that.
our minimum wage is $11 an hour. with $2-$3 hazard pay people are only making $13-$15 an hour, in connecticut where we have something like the 5th highest cost of living. rent is literally $1200 and these people are working at grocery stores during a pandemic for at best a take home pay of $400.
I wouldn't considering working a grocery store during a pandemic on the coastlines for anything less than $20 an hour. fuck these states, fuck low wages, fuck business owners and fuck the system. hope it burn down
