Fast-Food Workers to Walk Out for Higher Pay - Hartford Courant

Fast-Food Workers to Walk Out for Higher Pay - Hartford Courant: "Even when Kevin Burgos was a manager of a Dunkin' Donuts in Hartford, he made less than the $15 an hour workers are demanding in a one-day protest Thursday.

Burgos, 26, said he stepped down as manager three years ago so he could have more time to work on getting a commercial driver's license, and now, after eight years with the company, makes $10.50 an hour, working 35 hours a week as an assistant manager. When he was a manager, he said, he was paid $27,300 a year, or about $13 an hour."
