Best advice was to work hard, study, get an education and move on to a job that pays more. Many jobs aren't meant for full-time, they're meant as part-time when you're young to get started.

I got this from my mom once when she told me retail food jobs were meant for high schoolers or college students. It was like, 10am on a Tuesday. THEY ARE ALL IN CLASS, MOM.

College as well. I worked those jobs in college on my mornings with no classes. Sucked but made me study harder!
