Oh, FFS. Bank tellers have traditionally been paid low wages. It was my first part-time job in high school, and it helped me earn spending money in college. Even when I sporadically worked full time in between semesters, I wasn't earning enough to live on independently - had my parents not been subsidising me, I'd have had to get a roommate, and children would have been out of the question. There's a reason why bank tellers are almost always women - even when you DUmmies were little kids and tagged along with your parents to the bank, how often did you find a man behind the counter? Right - because it was a job suited to wives who were supplementing the family income. Women who wanted a career in banking moved their asses up the ladder.
DUmmies: not every job has to pay enough to support an entire family..... kids and part-time working spouses are allowed to jump in and out of the job market, you know. If the DUmmies had their way, we'd all have to pay the 12-year old neighbor kid $20.00 an hour to babysit.
