I make $13.50/hr(plus 1.5x on Sundays) working full time for a large supermarket chain for 5 years which is in turn owned by Ahold, and it is some sort of hellscape. Our parent company was just on a $3 billion stock buyback binge, but we can't get authorization to have our elevator fixed, so now we are going to make a human chain probably to get 16 pallets of water and 14 pallets of candy down two fights of stairs. There are basically no standards for our part timers anymore since you can't really ask for them when you pay the minimum wage, and there is a lot of discontent between the new full timers who feel like they're being screwed(for example, there is now an $18/hr salary cap), and the ones who have been working there for years who have all kinds of great pay and benefits. Also, specific to our store, we are extremely busy, in fact the busiest in the state for our company. We are bled dry to prop up other stores, we have the staffing levels often of a store doing half the business. We received a new store manager three weeks ago who is loathed by everyone from the department managers to the part time grunts, and we often have sewage back up into our backroom. Retail, woot.
