I am in new job (4 months), where I make 6$/hour. I work there just for the experience I get and that little paragraf in CV. Currently my supervisor setup group gift for my boss who got is academic and got the professor title. She wants me to pay 20$ for group gift to which I replied I cant afford it (I really cant). Am I the asshole here? She asked about this in groupchat so it was pretty embarrasing to reply to that but I save all the money I can so I can go to foreign trips and buy some crypto and 20$ is really alot for me as I am just student. I dont live in US but even in my country this wage is very low so I dont know.. is it against general politeness or something? I got the job from acquintance but still this made me mad today…
