That is all going to depend on the chain. If it is a small local store that is independent, one might start out at minimum wage. A store that has a few chains might start out closer to $8.
Very large national chains might start out closer to $9. Keep in mind that the larger the chain, the more likely that you will also have decent benefits that will start after 90 days as well. Even if they start out less than a smaller chain (in some cases), it might be worth the benefits.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
