Yep. We have a minimum wage. If you don't like the pay, don't do the job. Businesses aren't charities.
I've done way crappier work than making batteries for much less than $9/hr. My first real job after college just 10 yrs ago paid just 15/hr and I had to work and pay to get a 4yr science degree to qualify.
$9/hr to give some unskilled guy a soldering iron and and heat gun seems like not a terrible deal. For every hour you work, you can go buy Austin's awesome burrito :) Not saying much for the quality, buy hey
