There is a lady in my town who runs a small BBQ joint that keeps spamming Facebook, posting that she needs dishwashers and servers but is only paying $9/hour. Without fail, someone informs her that minimum wage in Minnesota is $10.08 for large employers. She always replies with "I'M A SMALL BUSINESS! MINIMUM WAGE IS LOWER FOR ME!" Needless to say, she hasn't found help yet.
Technically, no, there isn't. But if she continues offering wages below the higher minimum wage for large employers, she's going to continue to struggle to fill those jobs as people can just go to the larger employers to work the same job for more.
She's is technically correct. But I still doubt anyone will work for her when they can make more money at Walmart, Target, Kwik Trip, Culver's, Five Guys... the list goes on and on.
