i will always be of the opinion that you get paid according to how well you work. i started ihop making $6.50 and 2 and a half years later i was making $9. i was one of the hardest workers there and i got the benefits. working that job has opened my eyes to the whole poverty thing. the GM there used to be a big time drug dealer in a gang in petersburg. he was arrested at 18 and did 10 years. started working at ihop and decided to turn his life around...he was promoted to shift leader, then a couple months later, promoted to night manager, then assistant manager for a long time. they tried to give him the GM position at numerous other locations for a year but he wanted to stay at this store and eventually he became GM there. it's all about how hard you work...you dont even need a high school diploma to do this, so i wouldnt think immigrants would have that much trouble. the guys ive seen that come into ihop to work are slackers though, they do as little as possible to get the job done, which is why they arn't paid as much. simple as that
