This isn’t a livable wage as an adult.
So!
Am i to understand that this is a job for children?
When I was younger, they hired Russians and Ukrainians to come in and do it.
Because it wasn’t a livable wage 25 years ago.
And there weren’t enough children Virginian children who could labor.

Can anyone make the math work for $77.25/week to cover:
-Groceries
-Child Care
-Occupational Training (getting a lifeguard cert updated costs money)
-Mental Health Treatment (co-pays are still $25, even at a $550/month insurance rate)

The conclusion I draw:
@kingsdominionva has a business model that neccistates any of the following:
-child labor
-work visas for immigrants
-households with multiple incomes and a shared pool... where the other wage earner makes significantly more than $13-15/hr.
