As someone who is been in customer service my whole life, thank you for this. Everyone seemed to forget really quickly that during the pandemic, customer service workers were right there in the front lines with the medical professionals, logistics teams, post workers, etc. holding things together at the seams. We're human, we're skilled, and we're real folks. Please treat us like it.
@@OliveInfinityah yes, I'm sure ye old burger shop that saw absurd daily visitors even during the pandemic maintained strict social distancing in their cramped kitchens and service areas
The funny thing is if these "un-skilled job" dissapear all the sudden, economy and society would crumble apart. They're one of the backbone of economy, society and community. They're important!
All of these un skilled jobs are in fact disappearing Stores are closing down all over as they are forcing an increase to min wage, Pizza Hut just closed 120 stores.
As a 5 year mcdonalds veteran who now works an office job, Thank you Illy. You're also on point about people enjoying that work. Mcdonalds was hands down the most fun job I've ever had. If it payed better, I might still be working there.
Another problem is that wages have barely increased in response to the rising cost of living. This is the reason why so many people cannot afford homes or cars.
Just because homes increase, does not mean wages need to as well. The people supply info the jobs/pay are not the same ones in charge of the pricing for homes/ apartments , that’s a whole different issue
@Himathyy well that's part of the problem, landlords want rent and the IRS wants taxes, yet the government, the people supposed to be doing something, don't want to pay us enough money to do so...
@@Himathyyy companies like mcdonalds starbucks wendys all fucking can. but they dont want to because the top men in the company and the shareholders want more every fucking year
Remember how we were all so thankful for essential workers during the pandemic and how you had so many politicians making beautiful discourse about how society could not run without trash collectors, cashiers, janitorial workers, couriers, etc? yeah so do I...
Another issue is that the cost of living has gone up and instead of wages going up, they’ve barely gone up. So many people can’t afford cars or houses because of this
Clearly people have not taken an economics course in their lives you can’t just raise wages because then businesses are just going to hire less employees which leads to more job loss also the business will pass on that cost on the customer by raising prices
This is my number one annoyance when I hear the argument against minimum wage increases. "IF we do that what what what aboutisms the cost of living will go up!!!" Bruh, have you not noticed the cost of living lately? And the minimum wage hasn't increased since what? 2009. Nice argument chump, really holds water.
@@ihaveoneeye5317 And yet states that HAVE raised minimum wage, actually have strong economies. I'm wondering what economic courses you've been taking.
Its insane the level of mistreatment alot of workers get. I ran into so many two-faced customers who would act and preach about kindness yet would be so disrespectful to you trying your best. We need some replay button to show them the stuff they say lol
Even here in Europe, minimum wage jobs seem to be BACKBREAKING work more often than not. Physical labour, being on your feet all day, heavy lifting, and doing all of that for 6-8h straight while having to manage customers. Even if the work you do doesn't require some super advanced skills or some prestigious degree, if it involves you pushing your body and sacrificing your health all day every day, it likely is WAY more demanding than some tech-y office job.
And then in the US, these are the jobs least likely to offer health insurance. So you ruin your physical health for your job and your job does the bare minimum to support you. 🫠
@@blackqweenmars That's introducing them to unwanted violence scenario where fights escalate. They should be entitled to much more capable and efficient security guards though.
if high schoolers and college students decide to use their free-time to work, they deserve to be paid fairly for their labor. the fact some places can get away with paying teenage workers less is very exploitative
This was me. I’ve been working nonstop since the age of 16 (I’m 25 now) and I’m happy that I decided to do that because I can semi afford the life I have now, but at the same time, my friends would get mad at me for not spending enough time with them when they literally knew my reason for working earlier than they did
I work at Walmart, my favorite line I get (thankfully,only occasionally) is "This isn't a real job" I hope people like that end up having no other choice of employment
I always try to be nice to retail workers, even in my awkward neurodivergent anxious way, because I never know what garbage they've had to deal with that day.
I've had trouble keeping jobs due to my autism and ADHD and I completely feel the "not being assertive enough" to rude customers. I feel like that's a common neurodivergent experience in the workplace.
Workplaces seem to be against neurodivergent people too. I’m a highly skilled worker in the dog salon. But my work straight up told me that they don’t value me and I’m replaceable. They only see my mistakes from having ADHD. So now I’m forced to work somewhere for money when they’re trying to kick me out and I can’t find another job because I need other skills I don’t have.
Honestly some of my favourite jobs were minimum wage. I liked the concrete nature of the tasks and the dopamine hit of doing them well. If they only paid more I would have loved to do them forever
1. Annoy customer suck 2. I love the colors and layout of the frozen yogurt shop! Even with the kid running around in the beginning, I couldn't help but be in awe seeing the ice cream, toppings and fruits 🩷
This is why I try to be respectful to employees, They are working hard, trying hard to do their job. And don't get much respect as they deserve. So it's really important we make sure they feel like people, and not like your personal punch buddy.
I’m working a minimum wage job, people are so agressive towards us since we ‘don’t work hard jobs’ but really. Scooping hundreds of ice creams, making hundreds of coffees a day. Is hard work. Sure I didn’t need to go to school for it, but it is actually difficult.
3:31 especially in high school I definitely recommend working at summer camps. You get to have experience talking with customers and running things, but you more than likely aren’t going to have to deal with awful Karen’s. At all 3 of the summer camps I’ve worked at I’ve barely even had any contact with the parents.
"Raising the minimum wage drives up inflation!" Meanwhile, inflation is way up, and the minimum wage is the same. Stop simping for the rich. They're taking advantage of you. They're getting richer, while the rest of us get poorer.
2020 min-wage workers were seen as essential workers and everyone now just forgets how much we needed these jobs to function. I have so much respect for anyone who works with customers of any kind
my favorite thing is the 'essential' workers... how about (like the rest of capitalism) if you need it SOOOOO badly... you pay us? or we're out of here. $8 an hour to risk my life is absurd.

I have worked several minimum wages jobs and god I could not agree more! Just because we're covered in grease and oil doesn't mean we don't deserve to be treated like garbage.

I work at Disney World, and I absolutely LOVE getting to talk to our guests about the parks and their trip.
I’ve been robbed of your edible art style for 2 months - welcome back!!
This video hit real close to home for me. My mother has worked these jobs my whole life, and it’s really hard work. These things in this video really needed to be said. Thank you for saying them 💙
Decided to Google the minimum wage in Canada
Federal minimum wage, is $17.30/hour
Lowest is $14/hour, highest is $19/hour (depending on the province)
Also, this isn't me trying to brag or anything, especially because stuff, including housing, is expensive here
I was just curious
You know it’s a good day when illymation posts
2:24 NOT THE FRUIT NINJA REFERENCE!!!(yesh I still have the game)
you are so right illymation
as well as getting less pay and respect from customers, I've heard of waitresses being sexually harassed by creepy guys.
6:31 those two look like Ellie and Joe from the last of us and I played the last of us. It’s a really really good game.
Wait, it IS them.
OMG I LOVE THAT GAME :D
HAVE YOU PLAYED PART TWO????
@@felwalkr_94 I know
Or hear me out Trevor from gta 5
@@markiereid actually the guy that’s yelling at the worker looks like Trevor
I have worked several minimum wages jobs and god I could not agree more! Just because we're covered in grease and oil doesn't mean we don't deserve to be treated like garbage.
working in customer service for almost 5 years really made me stronger. Especially on the speaking up part, because I am tired of these people who treat you like garbage, so Im treating them the same, just in polite way and always making sure, it's within the rules, so I cant even get in trouble and they know it >:)
I feel like I’m masking because I still freeze up at times xD
@@pallasydoor7116 sometimes I do too, when people do something really unhinged and Im processing what just happend xd

It feels like fate that this got uploaded during my Illymation binge
8:24 people do realuze this means EVERYONE would get paid atleast that much, not just minimum wage jobs?
Maxinum Speed Arrival
My province (Canada) allows you to pay less for people under 18 $13, it only is required to pay $15 when you are over 18
Working at mcdonalds taught me the most painfull lesson that being "the customer is AWALYS right"
As someone who works minimum wage, who is trying to get threw college this was relatable 😊
You got this! 💛
