?? Posts 1, 17, 23, and 37 all mentioned low wages.

What is a reasonable wage? What is the correct hourly rate for checking IDs at the pool or putting in the swim-lane markers or setting up tables and chairs or handing out guest passes?

At least one post has suggested part of the problem may be with the hiring process. My personal experience leads me to believe it isn't working as smoothly as it should.
