*** ... minimum wage machine


Artist Blake Fall-Conroy created the minimum wage machine as an art piece in 2008, his explanation is the following: “The minimum wage machine allows anybody to work for minimum wage. Turning the crank will yield one penny every 5.04 seconds, for $7.15 an hour (NY state minimum wage). If the participant stops turning the crank, they stop receiving money.”

Talk about a pointless job…! I like the minimum wage machine...
