You are correct that $18/hr is objectively better than $10/hr.

You are, however, not correct that it’s good money. Until recent history, people could support a family on a grocery store cashiers wages. Now, without your mother, or if you had no family then 3 other roommates in a shit apartment, you couldn’t support yourself on those wages. Never mind a family.
