Government Shutdown would Shut Down Food Stamps

I am definitely wrong and I'm sorry for my innaccurate view/definition of socialism.

As an anarchist, it all gets lumped into the same pro-state or anti-state category for me. Someone has expressed that they are socialist and want to castrate the state to make it as small as possible, which is good, but runs counter to what I hear from the many socialists I talk to here in Quebec, who are all very pro-government solutions even though they recognize all the problems the government causes right now.

So, while I have you (and because of the 10 minute limit per comment shit...), can I ask how management would work at a company or in an industry within a socialist paradise? How would decisions CEOs and boards make be made? What about floor managers and what not? I'm sure there are lots of companies and factories in which you don't need someone ordering you around, but I'm also quite sure there are a lot of situations where you need some people focusing on more menial tasks while others are paid more to have more responsibility and take more executive decisions which can potentially make the company or wtv it is be more effective at what it does.

I bow down to no one, I do not vote, I don't beg politicians to give me what they promised me during their campaign, but as a 22 year old student, at my current job, I'm incredibly happy to only burden some of the responsibility. I'm in charge of the store I work at while I'm there, alone, all by myself, but it's not my job to make orders or keep track of what we need or do all the dirty work and make all the tough calls. I go in, do my shit, make a lot less money than my boss, and would heavily oppose say a minimum wage increase because I would prefer to keep making what he pays me and for him to stay in business than for him to close and for me to have to do more skilled work for this higher wage.

I'm not sure if raising minimum wage is linkable with socialism, but from what I grasp, having the workers own the companies collectively would imply wages being similar rather than exorbitantly different.
