1/5th of my entire salary was paid in practically useless food stamps that weren’t mentioned at all beforehand

For context I'm an 18 year old trans guy living in a shithole eastern European country and I'm saving up for college and to move to Canada in the near future. I wanted to get a job to save up. I live with my parents for the time being so i don't need the money to live off of just yet i just wanted to get as much savings as possible. I was promised a set alary in the interview.

They're completely useless for me. Guess I'll just save up 20% less because i got this as a summer job and it's far too late to find another one now
