burger king teenager discourse misses the important part, which is that when one works for burger king one gets money, which they can use to purchase video game, the most valuable commodity on earth

youth minimum wage for first 90 days is $4.25 per hour, which is ~16 hours of work (2 full time days) per undiscounted newly released AAA game

a job at burger king for a 14-15 year old hence turns the Steam store from "occasional gift" to "take your pick". forget experience, of both life and job, which it doesn't give you. forget something to do in the summer, which it does worse than video games. think $$$
