I am mostly just venting about the BS that is pay.
In the area I live in, in 1965, manufacturing workers made about ($106 a week) $400 dollars a month, about $2.30 an hour. Rougly $4800 a year.
Adjusted for inflation, that's above (about $1024 a week) $4000 a month, and $100 something an hour. Somewhere near 208K a year!
People working the same jobs in my area, are getting paid less than their ancestors, for essentially the same job.
And somehow younger generations are “lazy”, when they refuse to do more than their job asks of them, or flat out refuses to do anything but the BARE MINIMUM required to keep a job? While getting paid almost 860% less than their grandfathers/grand mothers?
Yes, the number got bigger, but the spending power got shrunk to the size of a pinhead.
