The amount of store manager positions is always an order of magnitude less then the lowest level jobs. 90% of people would not be promoted, because there simply isn’t any positions to be promoted to.
Ding ding, and let’s not forget that managers are expected to work even more hours. Usually I see retail managers working over 60 hours a week. Granted it does spare your body because you get a chair and paperwork to deal with rather than back breaking lifting and hauling and walking constantly.
But most get to a supervisor position and get shit canned because they pissed off someone in corporate or they just can’t move beyond there because typically only college degrees get to manage a store or move on to corporate.

This something no capitalist is willing to mentally process. Every high paid job is indirectly subsidised by 9 or more underpaid jobs.
These people will really sit down and say “why doesn’t every poor paid person just decide to get promoted and thus earn more???”
