TranscriptA tweet saying "100k a year to take someone's order at Taco Bell . Totally makes sense.". It has a reply saying "Where the hell did you get that number? If someone's working enough hours to make that on $15 an hour, they deserve it. $15 an hour, a person working 40 a week makes $31,200 a year." the reply has 2 likes.

The only limit to a person's salary is the following formula:

(Revenue - Expenses) / Number of workers

If the location makes that much money then the workers deserve $100k.

What is actually absurd is this idea we've all accepted that some other entity that doesn't actually do the work someone deserves the majority of the money.
