    Offered Kris his old pay rate? That’s why employers are having a hard time finding help. The old pay rate won’t pay for much more than a dumpster these days.

    Yes, minimum wage in PA is still $7.25/hour. It hasn’t been raised since 2009. Every state that borders PA has raised their minimum wage by no less than $1.50/hour in West Virginia, which is now $8.75/hour. New Jersey, just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia, is now $13.00/hour.

    The way to really thank them, Kris, is to stay on the straight and narrow!

    Has there ever been a story arc in this comic strip that didn’t end with a happy ending? I mean even the hardened criminals seem to become softies within a couple of weeks and people start throwing jobs and money their way.

    Good. You can start by getting Starbucks their dulce de leche syrup that they use in their hot caramel apple spice so I can finally get one!

    That’s one way to test the strength of Kris’ recovery. The restaurant business is perilous for someone trying to stay off drugs and alcohol. There is a great deal of both in that environment.

    “I get by with a little help from my friends.”

    Note to all: try to be a friend; they are better than enemies.

    Either Robb realized Kris was unlikeable or Kris has served his purpose now that Nicole is being set up with Marcus. But if Nicole and Marcus do become an item, Kris will be around.
