Easy. Greeters.
Do you honestly think the value of a Walmart greeter is 15$/hr? How much would you pay someone to stand at your door and say hi?

Ok, Walmart should loose it's greeters. And you should look into what a top matradee makes....

How about data entry? Literally someone who has to look at a number or an address or something on paper and type the same thing into a predefined field in a program. Possibly the most mind numbing work possible. Also something which requires almost no skill at all, and the value is just that the data is in an electronic format.

How about cleaning staff? Sure, cleaning has a value, but the more expensive it is, the less value cleanliness has. Suddenly instead of having the floors mopped nightly it's every other night, and the people performing the task get less work.

So this industry is moving to scanners with character recognition. But then when it is done by hand, how much does an attorney charge?

Ok, so having a clean facility is not worth a living wage to you. But in fairness, don't you live where people uncinate out side your window? Angel

Loose is the opposite of tight. Lose is what you meant.

And matradee? Really? Maître d' is what you meant. Saying hello to someone on their way into a store is a far cry from running a busy restaurant.

Thank you MACS. You should feel proud that you are in fact better than my iPad spell checker - which I am not.

A matradee is the guy who greets you at a resturant. He's also the top dog of the waiters. The word you wrote has them funny little symbols in it that really arn't part of the American language. I know they use them in other parts of the world where they really can't spell, but this in Amerika....

Matradee, is that Spanglish or Ebonics, it certainly isn't English.

Spellchecker doesn't correct words that actually exist.
So if you spell it "loose", it doesn't correct you. It just rolls it's eyes.

Yeah. But Webster doesn't know sh*t from shinola.

Why do you think Polish and polish are spelled the same?

Sure - one of the band members of the Blues Brothers was a matradee before they recruited him. Go watch the movie.
