McDonald's is paying $15 an hour here with sign-on bonuses.Several of the fast food joints in this area have closed their dining rooms because they can't get enough help to run both their drive-throughs and dining rooms. And even then some are running on shortened hours. The local Burger King (for example) closes somewhere between 7:00 P.M. to 8:30 P.M. nightly – even though their website advertises 12 A.M. My youngest son likes their fries (because they have fry sauce) that's basically the only reason I go there. Twice now I've been in line at their drive-through (at about 7 P.M.) and an employee came out and said "we're closing" and had the people back out of the line. So the average Amazon warehouse job at $14.44 an hour in Idaho is not exactly a huge draw around here.
