Wake Up Texas: The Average Age Of A Fast Food Worker Will Absolutely Surprise You
I recently read an editorial by another rich guy referring to fast-food workers as "burger flippers" and I'm just not having it. Like many people, I worked at a fast-food restaurant. For me, it was a Texas Dairy Queen and it was tough work. Not only do you stand near a hot grill for your shift, you also have the pressure of getting those orders out, prepping foods, and some truly brutal cleanup up including scraping that hot grill you just spent all day on.

Here’s How Much Money Each Family Size Would Need to Make in Texas
I don't know the official stats so I'm just going to make a somewhat educated guess that about 75 percent of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. If that stat is true, that's pretty sad.
