"it is denigrating to those needing those jobs."
Your perception is off, "I" am one of those who as a young person 'needed' a job.  An entry level was what I expected.  Fortunately for me, fast food was a GREAT first stop but NEVER going to be the last stop.
Speaking of 'stop', please stop.  You are obviously pro-union, and anyone in your way who isn't is denigrating.  You are looking for an argument that just isn't there.
