Do McDonald's workers in Denmark make the equivalent of $22 U.S. per hour? Can they live well on that? (leddit.danmark.party)

There's a meme being debated right now that says McDonald's workers in Denmark make $22 U.S. per hour plus they have 6 weeks of vacation.

Is this accurate? U.S. McDonald's workers make much less than this.

Can you work at a fast food place like McDonald's and have a decent standard of living?

WRONG. This guy can't read information from the internet. :D

He just looked up "mcd salaries" (in danish of course) on google and found this: "Fuldtidsansatte aflønnes med en månedsløn, hvor timelønnen findes ved at dividere med 160,33."

Then, because he is probably a neocon, or doesn't understand how salaries work (or both) he just wrote 160,33 because it looked cool - although that number has nothing to do with the actual salary.

160,33 is just the standard monthly hours worked at 5 day weeks with 7½ hour workdays. And it is the number you need to divide your monthly income by in order to get hourly wages.

Starting salary is ~132 DKK/h (~19 USD), which is minimum wage for unskilled labour for any unionized workplace. As others have said, we actually have no official minimum wage, but even non-unionized workplaces will in the end pay appr. the same as unionized.
