I work at a bakery. I would love to earn my regular hourly wage and deep clean everything that gets a cursory daily scrub, but they’d need to staff an additional person that day or have me come in overnight.
We’re a comparatively clean bakery, but it’s just not possible to maintain an environment that’s perfect for yeast to grow without also making it a perfect environment for everything else to grow perfectly as well.
They pay me €15/hour which feels like more than I actually need or would expect for the work I do, but I’m trying to work on that. Obviously I contribute more than €15/hour if that’s what they pay me, it’s just almost double what I’ve earned at similar jobs in the US and 2/3 of what I earned there at an insurance company analyzing contracts, so it seems wild to get that for customer service.
