Rampers you don’t have to deal with customers like the burger flipper or gas station attendant does. Not having to do the “welcome to Chick-fil-A, can I take your order” has value for a lot of people. As a teen I preferred jobs like landscaping vs customer service, just so I didn’t have to deal with the Karen’s of that time. I can only imagine it’s worse these days in dealing with people.
In the end, you have to pay what you have to to attract people. That’s as simple as that. No different than pilot pay
