I think in your time it was encouraged but now people are saying how it's a waste of time and energy even for high school kids. They could be doing better things with their time.

the lowest i ever made was $6.85 canadian which works out to $5.27 USD at that time.

minimum here is 15, but the killer about minimum wage jobs is that they are often just 15-31 hours per week.

I can see someone making the argument that it's better for the kid to focus on studies and make sure they get a scholarship or something for college.

But I feel like that's not really the choice most teens are having to choose between.

More teens should work, especially during the summer months at the minimum. Especially considering the pay (>14 or something ?) for many starter jobs these days

There was no minimum wage in the UK. Think I was getting 1.95 in the 90s. Started in Burger King, then moved to McDonald's because they were 2.10.

The last time I worked for minimum wage was high school in the early 90s. Honestly even if I was a high school kid now it would be virtually impossible to work for minimum wage. Every place around me in bumfuck farmer area of the Midwest hires for $15. Well above minimum wage.

Below minimum wage actually it's tip-based, so after that it's over $30 an hour lol
