Ima jump out the window for the entertainment tonight

If be better off milking unemployment and welfare
I couldn't make it off $11.75 an hour and live close to the lifestyle I live now -
I wouldn't even get up out of bed for $11.75 by this point.
-
i'd be homeless and damn near suicidal if that ? happened.
-
It took me a long time to surpass that wage, and it's the reason I became more independent minded, pursuing a work-for-myself lifestyle. I learned a long time ago that this system isn't fair and if I wanted a real life and to not be struggling, I couldn't depend on someone giving me work.

id be homeless as ? ..

If you're getting an hourly wage and you're not union or some variation of a skilled trade, you're not making ? over $14/hour unless it's some temp ? .
? need to quit looking for jobs and build a career. You'll never profit from working a job. Invest in yourself, be career oriented not job proficient.

Considering I make more than that
I'd punch somebody for dropping my pay -
Sometimes it's not how much you make but how you spend. $11.75 isn't a lot but I know people who are making $17-$19 a hour & claim that they are hardly getting by. I won't be surprised that the guy that makes $11.75 is better with money than the $17 a hour person
-
I dont even wanna think about it. Ill think about more money though
-
you not even lying somebody should make a thread on this..jobs that make surprisingly good money. You want a job making pretty close to 20 dollars an hour or more off the bat learn to drive a forklift and get on fulltime on any major carriers dock...they usually start you off around 17-19 and top at 23-24 bucks an hour. city bus drivers are the same way. -
I think what a lot of people fail to realize is that 20 bucks an hour aint that hard to get nowadays. the norm seems to be 14-16 starting out. hell even mcdonalds and walmart raising thier workers up to 10 bucks an hour by the end of next year. with inflation and ? most people still in the same boat they was in before.
-
I'd have to burn the ? down.
-
? , Id have to move back in with my parents =(
-
I'd be doing way worse, but I'd also qualify for government benefits.

I legit make between 60-65k including bonuses -
I left a job retail management job to work where I am now. Left some money on the table because I had hit my ceiling. When I started I was making about 11.50. This is with a wife and one kid. Now 4 years and 2 kids later I make 60-65k with bonuses. That's more than she makes and she has a masters degree.

Wow. If you gonna put in the time at universities, you got to start out a good clip higher than that, IMO. Regardless tho, depending on the major, an advanced degree puts you at higher career trajectory; more opportunities, higher cieling.
Student Debt without scholarships is a bear tho. No denying that. -
I'd rather go back to the streets, no offense. But that money ain't feedin no family.
