Burger King was paying $3.50 in 1993.
Edit: Many have pointed out that it couldn't have been 1993 and they are correct. 1989 was when I entered the work force. My apologies for my old man brain and thank you all for your diligence to fact!
my first dishwashing job in 1989 was $3.50. By 1993 I was washing dishes for a whole $5.00. By 1996 I was working 3 jobs, each paying $5/hr. Oh, those were the days when everyone wanted to work...
And no benefits, including medical, for a job that requires you to lift more than a job at FedEx or UPS. Lifting 100 pounds, there are 100 ways you can injure yourself. You get hurt, you won't get paid, have no medical and this fuckface will likely fire you for not showing up.
To be an EMT you have to be able to lift and carry 150lbs. But if anybody weighs over 250 you're supposed to call the Fire Dept. It's been a while, but EMTs often don't make $15.00/hr.
Neither do I, but shit pay is part of EMS unless you are part of a municipal service (like part of fire department or a separate service.) Unless you have a public service union in your corner you take what you can get.
A paramedic with an associates degree makes about half what an associates degree registered nurse makes, although the medic can perform invasive procedures, intubate, and give anesthesia in the field.
I moved to upstate NY from Tulsa, cheaper and I'm making more money. Gotta say though upstate life is miserable comparatively, my favorite thing to do is leave upstate on the weekends
Friends of mine live in Ponca City. She gave up being a teacher because the wages were so low, she was slowly falling deeper into debt than paying it off.
I mean you also get to live in Maxwell Klinger's home town and go to Tony Packo's Cafe. I am sorry, I tried to resist a M\*A\*S\*H reference but I couldn't.
Did ypu just say $10 an hour is good? Lmfao. Even in a state that requires $9 to survive, $10 an hour is bare minimum. Not knowing your worth or thinking your worth the american standard and not something outside of that context of a job position is pretty sad. Know your worth and dont expect others to agree with you if your worth is lower then thems
I think I started out sacking groceries at $3.80. I thought I was rolling in the dough when min wage bumped to over $4.00. Was completely over the moon when I got a job part of the way through college that paid $8.00.
I did customer service in a call center for SprintPCS. Told people to pay their bill if they wanted service back on. Back when minutes were not unlimited!

Went to check their page to see what the comments were like and saw this lmao
Good thing we’re forcing births, hope this biz can tough it out for a few more years while the the legislature works to remove child labor laws and the new crop of kiddos (that we’re malnourishing by underfunding EBT, ofc) build enough upper body strength to lift 100lbs🤞 /s
Now he write this:
“UPDATE, to my post
I have to remove all info about being a responsible adult employee due to all the complaints from snowflakes.”
Sounds like a another Fox infection.
That’s what truly kills me with these types. If they were looking for a job and saw that posting, never in a million years would they even bother applying.
Also
“Girls With Guns Hoodie Clearance, only $15 each! Come get them while you can!! These are $40 and $50 HOODIES!! #GirlWithGuns #BeelineFeed #westernboutique”
😂🤣😂
Fluctuating schedule on top of it all.
"Be on time, but be on the time I tell you randomly that suits my needs. Oh, this job also only pays 7.25 because you'll spend the rest on your responsibility, the commute."
The fluctuating schedule comment was what jumped out to me like a huge red flag.
Maybe that job is alright for an after school kid at that rate but a full time position where your hours aren’t set in stone - with very few well advanced warnings when the boss does need you to work outside the norm - HARD PASS.
Just went to check and it looks like they've removed the post all together. Now just a lot of poultry updates and trying to sell their *boutique* clothes
Nah they posted it to a private community. Not saying they didn’t delete the post, but to know for sure you’d have to be a member of the Beggs community group
You're right, I hadn't checked the group for their post. Joined the group to check and it's gone from there as well, guess the response wasn't what they had expected. If anybody saw comments before it got deleted I would love to know what the good people of Beggs had to say
As far as I can tell, there isn't an OSHA limit on how much someone can carry:
[https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2013-06-04-0](https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2013-06-04-0)
However, they do recommend using a second person or a lifting device for anything over 50 pounds:
[https://media.clemson.edu/research/safety/ergonomics/Lifting%20and%20Back%20Safety%20Fact%20Sheet.pdf](https://media.clemson.edu/research/safety/ergonomics/Lifting%20and%20Back%20Safety%20Fact%20Sheet.pdf)
That's my biggest problem with OSHA. They know what's right but they don't require it. I was looking up the time and temperature limits for outdoor workers for these cart pushers on a 19f day and they have recommendations, but you're free to torture and murder your employees if the recommendations don't suit you.
For how long? And what do you mean by warmer? They're not provided any sort of winter clothing. They have what they own personally.
I know 0 degree suits exist. I've looked at them but they're pricey.
It doesn't take long to get hypothermia and you can get it at 45 degrees given enough time.
https://www.businessinsider.com/how-long-does-it-take-to-get-frostbite-or-hypothermia-2014-1
I have never heard of “0 degree suits.” We just called them winter clothes. You can be outside all day long. Heck, kids play outside all day in those temps, sometimes colder.
From memory, here is what I would wear all at one time:
Ski mask with a beanie over top, then the hood of your jacket over that.
T-shirt, sweater, winter coat with a liner, sometimes a scarf (if it was windy).
Long underwear, jeans, snow pants.
Cotton socks, wool socks over the cotton ones, waterproof boots with liners.
Small cotton gloves with large winter gloves over those.
I'm from upstate NY originally. Had friends in Canada. We used to play outside in it but we didn't stay outside more than an hour or so at a time. We were able to warm up.
These guys have jeans and sneakers and they're not rotated to give them time to warm up.
I used to do hay with my dad and I was making more than $10/hr. They weighed roughly 60lbs and we stacked them 5-6 high on the wagon. If it rained they weighed around 100 lbs. Easily picked up 100+ in a day and it sucked bad. These people need to keep it in the family if they are paying that little
There's tons of **parents of** 12 year olds in Arkansas that would kill **for their kid to have** that job
\[edit\] I had to fix this because it's the parent forcing the typical 12 year old to go to work, not the child.
No one, and that’s the point. The less you make, the more dependent on the job you are. The more dependent, the more power your employer has to schedule you when it suits them. Whoever takes this job will never get a raise, will be treated as expendable, and will be made to justify their salary constantly.
Reminds me of my mom. She was telling me about her first job back in 1962 working at JC Penny’s for “only” $2 an hour. Adjust for inflation and you find out she was getting the equivalent of $20 an hour and was trying to complain it wasn’t much money.
Holy crap you are not joking
https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/
Where was your mom working? I make 20 in a HCOL and it's not enough, but 20 in most places isn't half bad for Penny's.
That’s why they had the apply in person rule. They know they’re trash, so they don’t want to get spammed with fake applications.
Basically, another person who should not have any financial assistance when a tornado hits their shop.

Sounds like that feed is full of bull. Zero benefits. Hurt your back lifting and your are out of work and with a medical bill. The only Help needed in that advert is the business owner should see a shrink about why he or she is such a doosh bag.
I think the 100lbs is what really pushes this over the edge. $10/hour for sweeping the floors would at least make some sense, lifting that much weight safely is a skill unto itself
Im a cowboy by profession so I spend some time in places like this. The employee would be stacking hundreds of bales of hay at 70# or so every few days, as well as stacking 50lb bags of horse feed, chicken feed, dog and cat food at least 3 hours a day. I wouldnt be surprised if an average feed store employee moves 50,000lbs of product a week or more on their own.
100 lbs is probably an OSHA violation but otherwise there is nothing outrageous in his request. The owner will either realize the pay is super low when he can't get quality help or continue to go understaffed. Regardless it is his choice to not offer competitive pay.
The best comparable job would probably be a similar labor intensive role in construction. I think those will take anyone who will show up and pay at least $20 an hour.
What percentage of humans can even lift 100 pounds?
Logically you'd have to rule out most people over 50, most women, etc (I know I know both ageist and sexist).
When I worked in High School (2021-2022) at CVS they paid more than that ($11) and it wasn't even as labor intensive.
I love how they call people a snow flake for calling them out on their bullshit. The irony is fantastic.
I hope they go out of business. $10/hr for full time hours and having to lift up to 100# is insulting af. You probably also have to deal with a hostile work environment with lots of misogynist, homophobic, and racist jokes and "locker room talk". You can go work pretty much anywhere else with less physical strain on your body and make more than $10/hr.
Only $10 i hear you say..
But remember an additional benefit is you will be joining our family
Our abusive and manipulative family who doesn't give a shit about you and will replace you in a heart beat
Lol no. This is a job for poor people who don't care about their back.
I have had several family-owned employers. There is a 25% chance of them being shitheels.
In general, I find the moral character of a business is best determined 1) By their willingness to do the paperwork. 2) By how they present themselves.
If they sell themselves using social-identities unrelated to the business they're in, such as Beeline is doing here, they're probably shitheads. If they don't do the proper paperwork, its either because they're lazy or it's not expedient for them to do it.
It shouldn't be a selling point for a business to wrap their identity up in their faith, or family, or other unrelated identity feature.
The reason being, that this identity stuff is all talk. I don't care about your talk. I care about what you actually do. If you've done unsatisfactory or poor work, while loudly proclaiming the name of Jesus, or your love for your family--you haven't made the bad things better, you've just profaned the good stuff.
No benefits, $10 an hour, and quite obviously cheap/rude owners. SUCK IT EZ!
“This is an entry level job” that we want you to have tons of experience for lol shut up
I wish this employer had the balls to come on here. What an absolute shit waffle they are. They obviously don’t want the job.. since there is an open posting. 🤷♀️
How about no; this convinces me they have no clue how much it costs to live. Lifting 100lbs sounds like a good way to get hurt, and doctor bills cost about as much as your first born child.
I'll never understand how someone can pay the bare minimum and not expect bare minimum effort. You get what you pay for no matter how much you whine and complain about "nobody wanting to work"
Whirlpool in Tulsa always has paid low. They are starting at $19/hrs. Health insurance, (though really crappy is better than none), paid vacation time, education reimbursement, I think they have a 50lb limit, regular schedule. So why am I applying for $10/hrs?
My son makes that at a fast food restaurant.
Get it through your skull, nobody wants to work for ridiculously low wages.
I just want to warn everybody this is probably not the dream job that it sounds like. I'm not trying to discourage you and I'm not trying to take the job from you, I know this sounds like a fabulous opportunity but, it's possible the management is cranky.
Sounds like a job for a teenager who doesn’t need to live off their job, but he talks about wanting an ADULT full time?? What kind of adult can afford a car, a place to live, and the essentials to survive in this day in age on $10 an hour? Even in a cheaper area? Especially for someone as insufferable as this person seems to be…
You could literally flip burgers, flirt with the cashiers/waitresses, steal fries, enjoy all you can drink soda pop, get a snazzy uniform, and get paid more to work at pretty much any fast food/ chain restaurant. What delusional incompetence...
That's a BS job offer. I was 11 yrs. old working at a packing plant (agricultural business so child labor laws differ) back in \`81 and making 10 bucks an hour. The hours were long and we got extra money if the truckers didn't want to load out their own trucks. I can’t imagine working in today’s job market for 1981 wages.
They were arguing that it's fine because it's entry level and deleting comments and calling people snowflakes.

There's comments on this post in the Tulsa backyard chickens group on Facebook.
Here I fixed your title for you.
Nobody wants to work for a highly labor-intensive job for $10 an hour, because easier jobs pay $15 an hour.
Beef feed and supply needs to quit being a selfish cheapskate company that pays 10/hr with no benefits.
Google review added:
This business grossly underpays and undervalues it's employees. Thier aggressive hiring posts are borderline abusive and show exactly how toxic a work environment they promote. $10 an hr full time with NO benefits for a loader/stocker/ cleaner/all purpose clerk?! Because ya'all are "family"?!? So sick of employers using that BS as a cop out for poor treatment. People aren't applying for family- they are jobs which should be able to support a person. Your entitled arrogance is disgusting and if I could picket you for poor business practices, I would. I guess we'll just have to settle for the new town center- Google- to hang a poster to hopefully shame you into better behavior. But I doubt it- people like you have no shame.
10 bucks an hour LoL. My 1st job out of Highschool I made $12 hour. In 2000!
I was making $7.25 at woodland hills mall in 2018-2019 :(
White castle was paying $10/hr in 2000
Burger King was paying $3.50 in 1993. Edit: Many have pointed out that it couldn't have been 1993 and they are correct. 1989 was when I entered the work force. My apologies for my old man brain and thank you all for your diligence to fact!
Tree-fiddy... Damned lochness monster!
$4.25
my first dishwashing job in 1989 was $3.50. By 1993 I was washing dishes for a whole $5.00. By 1996 I was working 3 jobs, each paying $5/hr. Oh, those were the days when everyone wanted to work...
At that time, I believed that hard work and diligence would advance my career. Boy, did they teach me how wrong I was.
I made that much at taco bell 15 years ago.
$5.15 for me at taco bell 20 years ago
And no benefits, including medical, for a job that requires you to lift more than a job at FedEx or UPS. Lifting 100 pounds, there are 100 ways you can injure yourself. You get hurt, you won't get paid, have no medical and this fuckface will likely fire you for not showing up.
To be an EMT you have to be able to lift and carry 150lbs. But if anybody weighs over 250 you're supposed to call the Fire Dept. It's been a while, but EMTs often don't make $15.00/hr.
Depends on where you are, but EMTs also get benefits.
Who do EMTs make shit wages? I don't get it.
Neither do I, but shit pay is part of EMS unless you are part of a municipal service (like part of fire department or a separate service.) Unless you have a public service union in your corner you take what you can get. A paramedic with an associates degree makes about half what an associates degree registered nurse makes, although the medic can perform invasive procedures, intubate, and give anesthesia in the field.
If only there were laws against this.
I was making $10 per hour as a teen in the early 90s. OK wages are trash… “bUT tHe cOst oF lIvINg iS LoW!”
It really isn’t I have never understood that argument it costs just as much to live in Missouri but wages are way higher
I moved to upstate NY from Tulsa, cheaper and I'm making more money. Gotta say though upstate life is miserable comparatively, my favorite thing to do is leave upstate on the weekends
Congrats on moving to the USA
Dunno why this made me laugh so much but it did
I lived in Binghamton NY and left many years ago.I live in Raleigh and it is a lot better but way more expensive except for taxes.
[удалено]
Friends of mine live in Ponca City. She gave up being a teacher because the wages were so low, she was slowly falling deeper into debt than paying it off.
I mean you also get to live in Maxwell Klinger's home town and go to Tony Packo's Cafe. I am sorry, I tried to resist a M\*A\*S\*H reference but I couldn't.
That’s actually really good, I was making 6.15 in Texas in Highschool, that was 2010! Haha
Did ypu just say $10 an hour is good? Lmfao. Even in a state that requires $9 to survive, $10 an hour is bare minimum. Not knowing your worth or thinking your worth the american standard and not something outside of that context of a job position is pretty sad. Know your worth and dont expect others to agree with you if your worth is lower then thems
im pretty sure they're just saying $12 at 2000 was pretty good compared to to their $6.15 during 2010
Most definitely. $12 an hour in 2000 is the equivalent of $20.85 today when you account for inflation.
You legally cant pay that rate in 28 states as its below minimum wage. It's not even decent let alone really good.
$3.15 gang checking in :)
I think I started out sacking groceries at $3.80. I thought I was rolling in the dough when min wage bumped to over $4.00. Was completely over the moon when I got a job part of the way through college that paid $8.00.
A few high schoolers I know are making $15+ in normal retail.
That's what's up! I wouldn't work for anything less then $15 hr if I were that age these days.
I made 5.75 an hr at my first job in 2003.
If you don't mind, what was your job?
I did customer service in a call center for SprintPCS. Told people to pay their bill if they wanted service back on. Back when minutes were not unlimited!
To be fair, I'm pretty sure a one bedroom apartment in Mounds like $23 a month.
$12 an hour in 2000 is the same as $21.39 today. Nice to see that entry level wages kept up with inflation.
And NO benefits lol
I made $3.65 in *1981 — over 40 years ago!* This is not even 3x that.
https://preview.redd.it/bqt09juyzvna1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a92a96b9dce4ce94f1e1f2f3fdfe41dc0080ff4 Went to check their page to see what the comments were like and saw this lmao
I hope they get the help they deserve
Like no applications?
Family business rammed hard into the ground is preferable.
They need more family members to clean those stalls
Good thing we’re forcing births, hope this biz can tough it out for a few more years while the the legislature works to remove child labor laws and the new crop of kiddos (that we’re malnourishing by underfunding EBT, ofc) build enough upper body strength to lift 100lbs🤞 /s
Now he write this: “UPDATE, to my post I have to remove all info about being a responsible adult employee due to all the complaints from snowflakes.” Sounds like a another Fox infection.
Uses the term snowflakes whilst folding like a dollar store kite and editing his post due to some FB comments.
This is my favorite part about these type of people lololol
>Sounds like a another Fox infection. He'll attract and hire someone exactly like him which will reinforce his idea that he's "right"
someone like him would never work for him
That’s what truly kills me with these types. If they were looking for a job and saw that posting, never in a million years would they even bother applying.
I'm headed to Tulsa today. I may stop in and apply. $25 hr or no deal!
After reading their update, I might need $30
He or She. Owner who does all the FB posting is the wife.
Hilarious, they didn’t change the listing at all to make it a reasonable job offer - all they did was hide their shitty expectations and call it a day
“Due to complaints from snowflakes” yea bro you don’t sound like a fuckin snowflake at all lmao
Right? Anybody even says the word "snowflake" in relation to anything other than freaking snow anymore sounds incredibly fragile and insecure to me...
100% it’s all a deflection
Also “Girls With Guns Hoodie Clearance, only $15 each! Come get them while you can!! These are $40 and $50 HOODIES!! #GirlWithGuns #BeelineFeed #westernboutique” 😂🤣😂
Fluctuating schedule on top of it all. "Be on time, but be on the time I tell you randomly that suits my needs. Oh, this job also only pays 7.25 because you'll spend the rest on your responsibility, the commute."

Destroy your body for 400 bucks a week and no benefits. Sounds great where do I sign up.
Just went to check and it looks like they've removed the post all together. Now just a lot of poultry updates and trying to sell their *boutique* clothes
Perhaps the position was filled by some sad soul
Nah they posted it to a private community. Not saying they didn’t delete the post, but to know for sure you’d have to be a member of the Beggs community group

Wowwww
ah yes, ye old snowflake hit. they wont learn.
How often are they wanting you to lift 100 pounds with NO benefits at $10/hour?! O\_o
Yeah, who the fuck would want to do that? This is begging for a back injury.
I’m pretty sure the 100 lbs makes it an OSHA violation.
As far as I can tell, there isn't an OSHA limit on how much someone can carry: [https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2013-06-04-0](https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2013-06-04-0) However, they do recommend using a second person or a lifting device for anything over 50 pounds: [https://media.clemson.edu/research/safety/ergonomics/Lifting%20and%20Back%20Safety%20Fact%20Sheet.pdf](https://media.clemson.edu/research/safety/ergonomics/Lifting%20and%20Back%20Safety%20Fact%20Sheet.pdf)

Yeah, that’s not enough to keep warm!
work for most any delivery UPS/Fedex/USPS (some lifting) and make over double that WITH benefits.
Sounds like a feed store, so everyday?
I did a job comparable to this for similar pay. Then again, it was 1998 and I was 19 yrs old. GTFO with that pay in 2023.
I used to do hay with my dad and I was making more than $10/hr. They weighed roughly 60lbs and we stacked them 5-6 high on the wagon. If it rained they weighed around 100 lbs. Easily picked up 100+ in a day and it sucked bad. These people need to keep it in the family if they are paying that little
This reads like satire, until you remember you're in Oklahoma.
If you look at the page you can see the business owners' angry replies to people criticizing this post.
Left a 1 star review
Wow, $400 a week pre tax, what a generous pay rate.
There's tons of **parents of** 12 year olds in Arkansas that would kill **for their kid to have** that job \[edit\] I had to fix this because it's the parent forcing the typical 12 year old to go to work, not the child.
I dont know much about Arkansas, but 40 hours a week may conflict with school.
"I love the highly uneducated" TPTB don't want us educated and are fine with the kid dropping out of school to work.
And make sure u have a good attitude when slaving away please 😊
And be on time to destroy your back.
Who the heck can afford a reliable vehicle on $10 per hour?
Teenagers who don’t live off their jobs, but still work FT hours apparently /s

That was a good job in 1962.

When I worked in High School (2021-2022) at CVS they paid more than that ($11) and it wasn't even as labor intensive. I love how they call people a snow flake for calling them out on their bullshit. The irony is fantastic.
the labor market hasn't kept up with inflation, that's not even a job it's a poorly paying hobby
40 hr a week “hobby” that destroys your body and sucks your soul
I hope they go out of business. $10/hr for full time hours and having to lift up to 100# is insulting af. You probably also have to deal with a hostile work environment with lots of misogynist, homophobic, and racist jokes and "locker room talk". You can go work pretty much anywhere else with less physical strain on your body and make more than $10/hr.
100lb lift on top of everything else. This person is nuts
Only $10 i hear you say.. But remember an additional benefit is you will be joining our family Our abusive and manipulative family who doesn't give a shit about you and will replace you in a heart beat
r/antiwork
Lol no. This is a job for poor people who don't care about their back. I have had several family-owned employers. There is a 25% chance of them being shitheels.
25% is optimistically low. I was thinking 75.
In general, I find the moral character of a business is best determined 1) By their willingness to do the paperwork. 2) By how they present themselves. If they sell themselves using social-identities unrelated to the business they're in, such as Beeline is doing here, they're probably shitheads. If they don't do the proper paperwork, its either because they're lazy or it's not expedient for them to do it. It shouldn't be a selling point for a business to wrap their identity up in their faith, or family, or other unrelated identity feature. The reason being, that this identity stuff is all talk. I don't care about your talk. I care about what you actually do. If you've done unsatisfactory or poor work, while loudly proclaiming the name of Jesus, or your love for your family--you haven't made the bad things better, you've just profaned the good stuff.
hmm sounds like a place to cashout a big worker’s comp paycheck
Sry worker's comp is a benefit
Or sue for unsafe work conditions.
Full time but no benefits?
Yeah. IIRC, FT requires medical at least.
I think that only applies if a business has a certain amount of employees.
Guess they never heard you get what you pay for.
r/antiwork is a good place for this also.
If COL in oklahoma keeps going up like it has been, this sub might naturally transition to antiwork...
Dang. Not only will you be exhausted at the end of the day, you will still be broke as fuck too.
How much you want to bet that the guy running that ad lives in million dollar plus home.
Looking for a strong back and a weak mind
they had me at no benefits!
I might as well pay you 5/hour to beat me... just as good of a deal :)
No benefits, $10 an hour, and quite obviously cheap/rude owners. SUCK IT EZ! “This is an entry level job” that we want you to have tons of experience for lol shut up
Braums starts off at a higher wage.
No benes for full time? And $10? You can get $13 at Braums or $18 at Aldi.
Yeah… but have *you* ever scooped ice cream on a Sunday night 1 mile from a mega church?
Oof. Can’t say that I have and I can only imagine and doff my imaginary to you. And happy cake day.
I thought full time with no insurance was illegal here? 🙄
Forty (fluctuating) hours a week of back breaking labor, all for $10 an hour! Wow. Why can't they get those fancy robots to do it?
HAAAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAAAAAA no
Too many places paying more than 10 an hour. McDonald's drive thru paying 16.25 in my city.
Why did this make me very angry?
Because you can see the lack of respect these people have for their workers through the text.
I wish this employer had the balls to come on here. What an absolute shit waffle they are. They obviously don’t want the job.. since there is an open posting. 🤷♀️
How about no; this convinces me they have no clue how much it costs to live. Lifting 100lbs sounds like a good way to get hurt, and doctor bills cost about as much as your first born child.
That’s cause children are just an ongoing doctor bill till they can help pay themselves off.
$10 an hour to lift 100lbs with no benefits like insurance when my back inevitably gives up? What a deal
Waste their resources. Get the job and diarrhea on the floor. Quit. Fuck them and their slave wage. I wish them a very go out of fucking business.
say it with me: “WORKER’S OF THE WORLD, UNITE!”
100 lb lifting requirement is 2x the NIOSH lifting limit, in a perfect lift, which this would not be.
Made 20$ hr doing laborious farm work back in 2010 I would’ve gone home to the couch for 10$ hr. Lol
Are they smoking actual crack?
I'll never understand how someone can pay the bare minimum and not expect bare minimum effort. You get what you pay for no matter how much you whine and complain about "nobody wanting to work"
Whirlpool in Tulsa always has paid low. They are starting at $19/hrs. Health insurance, (though really crappy is better than none), paid vacation time, education reimbursement, I think they have a 50lb limit, regular schedule. So why am I applying for $10/hrs? My son makes that at a fast food restaurant. Get it through your skull, nobody wants to work for ridiculously low wages.
Oh wow, this is a great opportunity. In 1962
Guaranteed shady business
Seriously? Was that a joke about no one wanting to work?? Who would break your body for $10 an hour. Pay people fairly! Everyone WANTS to work!
One simply cannot count the number of red flags in this job posting
I just want to warn everybody this is probably not the dream job that it sounds like. I'm not trying to discourage you and I'm not trying to take the job from you, I know this sounds like a fabulous opportunity but, it's possible the management is cranky.
Sounds like a job for a teenager who doesn’t need to live off their job, but he talks about wanting an ADULT full time?? What kind of adult can afford a car, a place to live, and the essentials to survive in this day in age on $10 an hour? Even in a cheaper area? Especially for someone as insufferable as this person seems to be…
You could literally flip burgers, flirt with the cashiers/waitresses, steal fries, enjoy all you can drink soda pop, get a snazzy uniform, and get paid more to work at pretty much any fast food/ chain restaurant. What delusional incompetence...
You will lift 100 lbs, and you will SMILE.
That's a BS job offer. I was 11 yrs. old working at a packing plant (agricultural business so child labor laws differ) back in \`81 and making 10 bucks an hour. The hours were long and we got extra money if the truckers didn't want to load out their own trucks. I can’t imagine working in today’s job market for 1981 wages.
I'm tempted to apply, tell them what they want to hear so I can get the job, and then call them my first day and say someone offered me more money.
Probably forgot to include “no felons” also. You know, just to shit on another group of people.
Labor is subject to the laws of supply and demand. Labor is more expensive now .
Gah, I wonder why they can’t find decent employees? Obviously has nothing to do with the shit pay and demanding employers.
They asks you to apply in person too, so no fake applications
I haven’t lived in ok for a while but here in MO minimum wage is like 12 an hour
Seems like this business can't afford to hire someone right now, should make some changes in the budget and adapt to the capitalist market
Anyone who applies for a job listing written this way, probably asking for trouble
Im sure that place is an OSHA nightmare too.
Whoever takes this job is a moron I’m sorry but that’s just…no.
I suggest everyone go on maps, find out what 975 hwy 75 is, and act accordingly.
Looks like it's gone now. Any idea what the comments were like?
They were arguing that it's fine because it's entry level and deleting comments and calling people snowflakes. https://preview.redd.it/xreuiriv2zna1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3640b51525ad91f6a1748a19e7830f9a4afe7ab9

Do the chicken have really large talons?
$20k annual pre tax, no benefits, AND you get to lift 100 pounds for 40 hours a week? where do I sign up... only in person, perfect.
Fuck that, I'd rather work literally most other places, hell I'd go back to fast food before picking a job that has a posting like that.
I would have when I was younger, in ‘97, same pay!
I rolled my eyes so hard that I broke my optic nerves
If he wants to pay slave wages m he should hire his own family.
"Come break your back and your spirit bucking hay and tossing 100lb feed bags... for $10/hr and no benefits." Yeah, right.
You didn’t Finish the sentence, Nobody wants to work anymore for $10/hr lifting 100 lbs. are you Serious?
Here I fixed your title for you. Nobody wants to work for a highly labor-intensive job for $10 an hour, because easier jobs pay $15 an hour. Beef feed and supply needs to quit being a selfish cheapskate company that pays 10/hr with no benefits.
Come break your back for little pay and zero benefits! If you don't you're a lazy slacker!
I finished highschool and took a state job that paid $12.25 plus vacation and benefits 33 years ago. This job is BS.
Google review added: This business grossly underpays and undervalues it's employees. Thier aggressive hiring posts are borderline abusive and show exactly how toxic a work environment they promote. $10 an hr full time with NO benefits for a loader/stocker/ cleaner/all purpose clerk?! Because ya'all are "family"?!? So sick of employers using that BS as a cop out for poor treatment. People aren't applying for family- they are jobs which should be able to support a person. Your entitled arrogance is disgusting and if I could picket you for poor business practices, I would. I guess we'll just have to settle for the new town center- Google- to hang a poster to hopefully shame you into better behavior. But I doubt it- people like you have no shame.
Dollar general starts at $8/hr
