“Terrance is not your typical minimum wage worker. Most minimum wage workers move on after a couple of years, because turnover in the fast-food industry is rapid. When I asked NPR how to get in touch with Terrance, I was given the name of his publicist. A minimum-wage worker with a publicist? That’s something. Worker centers such as NYCC should stop masquerading as friends of workers and admit they are paid by unions to do work that unions are not allowed to do. Higher minimum wages will price the young and unskilled out of jobs, and add to their difficulties in finding employment.”
