Antiwork

It’s hard to live within my means when my landlord and employer are also all up in my means.

Seriously, my rent is going up 15% to cover property taxes. My new boss just explained to me that I won't be getting a raise this year because the new role I moved into has a lot more responsibility and the company is taking a risk to see how I handle it. Increased responsibility, increased work complexity, increasing cost of living and static wages. I know I am fortunate that I am still afloat, but I am starting to get seasickness… How do you get off this ride?
