What is the minimum wage amount in the state/country you live in? What are the lowest paying jobs you’ve seen in your area?

I only ask this because our lovely former governor would rant and rave about how he was going to get this done, that done, and raise our minimum wage to $12, then to $15. I honestly was under the impression it was $10 or something here at the least (I’m not originally from PA) and considering how expensive everything is and how low-paying most jobs in my area are (on average 12-13) but nope, it’s still $7.25….for the last TWELVE years. I’m dumbfounded. Makes sense why many of us are on the struggle bus here.
