I am seriously sick and tired of this. The cost of living is ever increasing and employers refuse to at least be a bit generous and provide you with at least 12 dollars an hour. Not only is my employer adding more work, but they are also not staffing which requires me to do the work of 5 to 6 people. Recent changes are just going to make it harder to even work and log in for work after doing all these unnecessary steps just to work. Is it too much to ask for a living wage? The federal reserve hiking the interest rates are kicking people like me out of the market from not only getting a mortgage and a home , but also a new car as mine was just stolen. How will I pay off my debt in credit card bills when my variable interest rate are hiking, I’m earning 10 dollars an hour and 9.50 an hour which equals 1675 per month by doing 20 hours each. Cost of living is skyrocketing, eggs are expensive, and when I was hopeful that my job was going to provide me a raise a little, they fell short on their hints and their promise.
When are we going to get together and protest this, protest the fed, protest these corporations that bleed us dry to the bone and then throw us to the dogs after we’ve been used up like slaves. Let’s not forget about the high taxes which even lowers my gross amounts to pay for the things that I need to even live.
Thank you to whoever made this subreddit. I thought I was alone on my struggles.
