So I worked a job I loved for 2.5 years but I finally decided to leave because they just didn’t want to pay me enough for what I did. At the end of January I got a job working private security and it was alright but I didn’t love it. The money is slightly better but not by much. Mid February they lost their major contract and I got furloughed but now I’m back and things have gotten somewhat worse. Before I was making only slightly more money but I was closer to home. Now I’m having to drive significantly further and they want to pay me the same. Looking for a different job but I wanted to vent. I follow this sub ironically as a libertarian so I don’t always agree with posts and comments but I understand why so many are upset. Inflation being what it is companies should be increasing wages to compensate. I’m all for free markets and keeping government out of business but these companies are getting out of hand. It’s time to break up the monopolies.
