It's always going to be more difficult to afford life in a major city like Toronto if you work in an unskilled position, as compared to living in the burbs or a rural area. Simple capitalism.
I worked in fast food and retail for close to ten years because I was lazy and not motivated to earn more money. But I never felt entitled to anything, even though it can be hard work at times.

These jobs were also never intended to be anything more than stop-gaps for young, low-skilled workers. It is extremely rare for people to stay in these roles for longer than it takes to for them to up-skill.
