I'm not sure if youre a college student but say you come out of college 4 years down the road, but you stuck it out at A&P or shoprite, etc. You should be able to make around 20k in a year and have some type of benefits with a little bit of seniority. Without that, you'll be stuck with minimum wage jobs while youre searching for something bigger that you went to school for. Also, future employers will see you as desirable if you stick somewhere for 3+ years.

All in all, the pay may not be that great, but if you stick it out you will be glad you did. Its hard to walk into a job today and make decent money without much experience.

so no offence... but I completely disagree with this. If you come out of college with a bachelors there is absolutely no reason to accept a job for less than 40k, even with some less desired degrees like history. You'll be hurting yourself doing something like this.
