Assistant Manager was posted at $100,000+, Car Wash Manager was posted at $125,000+, and the General Manager was posted at $150,000-$225,000+.

For the management positions, I thought that they might require a college degree but for the Assistant General Manager position, their website says college Degree from college or university or 1-2 years or more related experience and/or training; or equivalent combination of education and experience in job related field.

A lot of my work colleagues had more than $100,000 in student debt and they were not making $100,000 a year!

Totally agree. My DIL has a Bachelors and post grad degrees, no student loan because it was all scholarship. She makes 32K per year. She took 1 year off from college to work and save money. During that year, she made 75k waiting tables at a high end restaurant.
