Dunks pays $9.50 here to start for counter people. A friend manages one
of the franchise stores and makes over 50k a year. The location I was at
with the sign has an adult manager and assistant, all of the other
employees I've seen there are students (which I only know because I work
at the college). Sure as hell beats waiting tables in the off season in
Maine.
