Do you have sources or is this pure speculation?

I live in a foreign country but when I come home to the USA to visit, I still see mostly teenagers working at fast food restaurants.

The thing is, most managers at minimum wage jobs wouldn't want to hire a college graduate. They would feel threatened since they probably don't have a degree themselves.

I have not really seen this attitude, and I've worked a few shitty jobs post education. (I get a perverse satisfaction from shifting beer barrels)
