note: the only argument you can make is I have geographic privilege and it is what it is get over it
europoors, australians, and canucks, and non americans need not apply to this thread, I don't give a fuck about your problems
Living off of 15 an hour would legit be struggling
Ayden Hernandez
today I got called back from a place I used to work at 8 fucking years ago.
wtf, they seem desperate.
Sebastian Ross
This is a fair point, which is why I acknowledged geography in the equation. I'm sorry to hear that user, and I do understand.
I had my own place, my own car, and lived like a poorfag off 9/hr in 2010 at 18, you're just a fucking idiot. Not only that 15 is the minimum, and there is more than enough growth.
Plenty of them will pay 20+ with just seniority.
Jace Sanchez
You’re an idiot.
Brayden Edwards
I can't imagine living on $20 an hour again. You scrimp and save and budget and cut coupons and as soon as you think you're finally saving some money someone comes along and jews you. Speeding ticket? $300, which took you 5 weeks of wageslaving to save up. Moving out of your apartment after living there 5 years but the lease isn't up for another 3 months? $1000 fee for breaking the lease, that's 17 weeks of saving your shekels. It hails and fucks up your car? $1000 deductible, another 17 weeks of slaving away. One more little thing and the whole year's a wash. Fuck that, you get nickel and dimed to death on $15-$20/ hour.
David Brown
I’m making more than this on unemployment
Levi Rogers
>damn it really sucks I got fined for something that was entirely avoidable
lets be conservative and say 20/hr with OT is 43,680/yr (realistically it'd prob be 45k, could be 50k or more depending but anyway)
840/wk -10% for 401k 84/wk -26/wk for HSA -15% for tax (it's probably actually less than this) -111/wk
you have 629/wk one br apartments are easy to find for 550, if you want to be a bigger kike poorfag you can get a studio for less
2516 after 401k/hsa/taxes per month -550 rent -300 for utils (phone included) -250 for car/insurance (if bought, you can get a car for 10k and have this payment with full coverage) -300 for food 1116 -300 misc expenses
Oh wow, you have 816/month plus months with 5 weeks giving you a free 639.
You're an idiot
Julian Howard
ok boomer
Brody Morales
Oh, never mind I found the gap in my budget! you're one of those retards who spends all his money on booze/weed!
Not only are you wasting your money, it's compounding into even further equity by damaging your health.
Michael Fisher
Based but these losers won’t listen
Alexander Collins
They're only that cheap in flyover shitholes with nothing to do and an egregiously high crime rate given the context of where they are.
Jacob Carter
Fucking retard lmao
Nathaniel Foster
t. Hustle and bustle fag who wastes 4 hours of his day in bumper to bumper traffic commuting
You sound incredibly low IQ, ever considered suicide? Worthless wagecuck subhuman.
Jace Murphy
Where do you live?
Carson Stewart
>literally every street I go down has now hiring signs >plenty of opportunity for growth, some of these positions could lead to six figures if you just wanted to work >six figures for street advertised work If you want to spend 30 years there waiting for the manager to die or something.. Geez..
Cooper Young
20x40=800 less tax, lets just say 700 rent shouldnt cost you more than 200 a week 500 300 maximum in expenditure a week, including fun stuff 200 a week straight savings.. 800 a month.. its perfectly manageable
Oliver Watson
the sooner you coasties fall into the ocean the better
Zachary Brown
Is apply but I don’t have 5 years experience as a maintenance technician
Ryan Phillips
Change that to >1700 mortgage >600 for food because I'm not a cuck who lives in an apartment with no kids.
Christopher Murphy
go take a class on plc's go learn how to use a multimeter learn how to do something
you don't need 5 years to get any of those jobs, granted some may pay less but it doesn't matter you'll get there before 30 years waiting on management positions
