Shit work occurs at any level of the pay scale.
Of course, but there's a TON of research that supports the position that the more you're paid, the better job you'll do. The single biggest factor in improving workers' marginal revenue products of labour is to increase their wage. In fact, I read a really interesting paper a couple of years ago about the trade-off between sleep and salary. There's a measurable substitution effect. People will give up sleep for work as pay increases.
It's not surprising that you attract the sort of hard-ons that would fart on someone's entre when you offer minimum wage for those jobs.
