So I know we talk about act your age and quiet quitting, but do we “look our wage” enough?
If you get paid $12, can you really afford to have your teeth fixed, hair groomed, afford nice business/casual clothes without any cheap materials? Like you can save all that plastic stuff for the people in Hollywood. But in the real world where we are paid minimum wage, I think we should start looking like minimum wage too. Most of us can’t even afford the health insurance for proper care anyway.
I’m from a poorer area in the US too so I think it’s valid. What do you guys think?
ETA: What sparked me to create this post was how corporations want you to dress nice with well groomed hair, control how much make up you wear and what colors to have, along with having straight white teeth. This of course to make their company look better. Also some expectations are unrealistic when you’re underweight and can’t find pants in your size, even worse when you can’t find belts in your size.
