I’m so tired of people telling me I shouldn’t afford to have basic necessities because I “should’ve chosen a better paying career”

Title. Every career should be able to afford the bare minimum ffs If everyone in a “low paying” field just suddenly quit, society would collapse. “You should’ve done your research beforehand”. Well no shit Sherlock, I did. No one goes into teaching or social work or mental health for the money. But goddammit we still need enough to feed ourselves. Not everyone can be a STEM major, otherwise that market would be inundated with more jobseekers than positions. I’m sick of people who are 30+ years older than me telling me “I struggled too” as justification dismissing how hard it is to make it nowadays. The cost of living has skyrocketed, college degrees are almost as mandatory as high school degrees are, and there is an undeniable growth in inequality to the point where it feels like the 1920s again. 100 years and nothing has changed.

“Job hopping” is ok. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.

Companies have no loyalty to you so why should you have loyalty to them. My loyalty isn’t free. Over the last 3 years I have had 4 jobs and just got hired to the 5th which starts in a few weeks. Each one paying more than the last. I’ve hopped my way from 28k/yr to now the new job will be at 67k/yr. Seems it’s pretty much the only way to get any substantial pay increases these days anyway. Job 1. 28k Job 2. 32k Job 3. 41k Job 4. 53k Job 5. 67k The last three jobs were all within 13 months. Hop along and get your money. It has not stopped me from getting a job yet.
