no life pays well

You didnt give your boss a firm enough handshake during the interview.

>>58208348
>$10 an hour
Good god, anon. Even McDonalds pays more than that now. I’d quit immediately

>>58208810
its more common than you'd think in the middle of the country. i am making 23$ an hour out of state right now, ill be leaving this summer for 3 weeks, have a possible job lined up at a golf course for may-june that pays 10$ plus tips

>working as supervisor at UPS
>hours have been cut massively as the company moves to more automation and spreads more evenly distributes work through new HUBS and distribution centers.
>recently got rate raise with same guaranteed weekly hours
>making $28.8 an hr to do half as much work but still getting basically the same guaranteed hours i would previously

this all seems pretty unsustainable and arbitrary, feel like big layoffs are coming, hopefully my 6 years of seniority keep me off the chopping block.

>>58209025
28.80 is nice anon. i get what your saying, ive always been kind of a doomer so im trying to leave that mindset behind but it really does feel like the economy is just waiting for a big downturn. just save up and pray for the best. GL anon.

Im an engineer and i make 45 dollars an hour

The gap between the top 20 and bottom 80 increased a lot since 2021.

>>58209056
That seems low for an engineer.

>>58209079
Engineers are phags desu. Imagine what type of loser dork decides to become an engineer lol

>>58208389
Half of that goes to Shanita and state funded lgbtq projects in Uganda

>>58209079
They paid shit lol. Top 500 richest men arent engineers lol.

>>58209153
Migrants gettijg free checks in nyc. Imagine working lol

Not everyone is meant to be rich.

>>58209056
I make $72 hour from my bed. I dont do anything either

Lol. Im retired. But 80% of americans live paycheck to paycheck. And the middle class is disappearing.

Amazon delivery drone here.
I got put on standby today, but I have a buffer of PTO, so I don't care.
Yesterday was a 11 mile day though

>>58209284
How did you solve the captcha?

>>58209284
Shit bro. A 40 hour job is rough on the body and mentally draining. Just like 40 hours from every week missing but the dread on sunday evening is a killer. Its like looking at your weekly timetable and a chunk is for work. Been there done that. Time crawls at work.

>>58209342
>A 40 hour job is rough on the body and mentally draining
try 50 to 60 hours 6 days a week. 40 hours 5 days a week seems like heaven.

>>58209342
Most of the time I don't mind too much, I can throw on an audiobook and go on autopilot. Plus, where else can an autist make 20/hr without needing to interact with the psychotic general public? And I have 4x10, so I'm pretty ok, all things considered.
>>58209329
Very Carefully.

>>58209371
>try 50 to 60 hours 6 days a week.
why would you put yourself through that? unless you are desperate to survive

>>58209374
>Most of the time I don't mind too much, I can throw on an audiobook and go on autopilot.
Been there done that. I prefer retirement.

>>58209374
10 hour shifts drag on. Those 3 days off are like recovery days. And the problem isnt the job, but the people that work those jobs.

>>58209395
If you work less than 60 hours a week, lower your tone

>>58208348
I have a $20 an hour job that I haven't been to in 3 months (amazon warehouse ) - been busy with school - I'm considering quitting

>>58209571
Stay in school. If you can, stay in school till age 100. Work life is hell. Anyone thats otherwise is coping. Majority of humans make little and the middle class keeps shrinking.

>>58209571
When i was in school i wanted to work. When i was working i wanted to be in school. Life cycle of a normie.

take that 80 and put it in dogecoin and it will 10x

>>58208348
I mean...if you think about it your basically getting cucked , 10 $ an hour ain't shit

>>58208348
I don't know how much I earn hourly; though the work I managed to get was pretty lax despite the low income.
I'm unsure where to go from now on, though I'm looking to see if I can get paid a bit more in April. The only thing I've learned so far is that I do things incredibly well and pick things up fast however I lack a mentor to teach me things hence the lack of direction.

>>58208415
honestly this, it hasn't even started yet

currently on vacation. I seriously dont want to clock in on thuesday. I dont know how to get out of this shitty loop. I have all the tools to 'make it' but I am to dumb and lazy to use them. instead I am on 4chan whining about my situation.

>>58210278
Who cares man. 80 percent of americans live paycheck to paycheck.

>>58208348
Your fault for accepting it.

>tolerate it
>deserve it

It's as shrimple as that™

>>58210278
Why are you poor but also on vacation

this. /thread bunch of 40 hour wagies sipping apple juice from their sippy cups in this thread. lower your tone, the men are talking

>>58210498
Exactly. Im not even sure if there are any men in here.

>>58210498
Maybe its a bunch of girls in here using their credit cards to buy the 500 dollar stanley tumbler and then filling it up with cheap coffee.

>>58208348
I’m in that awkward position where my job is now paying less than when I started due to inflation and a lack of raises and the only jobs I can find locally are all wageslave bullshit like BestBuy or Walmart or being a waiter or trying food delivery. It’s incredibly depressing. I’m trying out selling things locally but everybody is broke and most I hear from are low-IQ ESL scammers or people asking to trade.
