Surprising Salaries for Jobs You’d Never Imagine
17th August 2014
Many companies will train employees on the job. Lucas Mund spent a summer in college working at a local burger chain. “My 19 year-old boss was taking home $35,000/year with benefits,” he said. “Plus they train you on the job for free. She told me that she was on track to be a regional manager by the age of 30 and would make 100k by then.”
Working your way up to store manager has its perks. According to Murray Godfrey a Wal-Mart store manager “of a store in a moderate-sized locale can easily make $200k plus bonuses based on sales.”
Katie Nellis said managers of Walgreen’s drugstores in the US “often retire in their 40s.”
Turns out there’s a lot of moola in doing the jobs Americans don’t want to do.
