She could be... assistant manager.

Snob.
Lolene grew up in in a blue/no collar world, lucky if most of the extended family had jobs. She barely finished High School, and has heard of colleges, that's where they build them football teams. She's honest, reliable, hard working, and seems to be pretty smart, but we'll never know because education was always a priority behind food, rent, insurance, taxes, medical bills, etc.
Making minimum wage will guarantee the same for her children and guarantee a steady supply of disposable humans for the 1% to use.
