There was this video posted online recently that got a lot of attention where a person posted their pay-stub of how much they made in a restaurant after all the expenses were taken out. From the video it would appear the person worked a little over 70 hours at a rate $2.13. That actually made me wonder how that was even a legal minimum wage.
