I checked my offer letter, showing my $24.04/hr pay agreement. I showed this and I’m still told there is some “fine print” which they refuse to disclose. I would be happy to provide the rest of the offer letter shown, but it would take a lot of I would be happy to provide the rest of the offer letter shown, but it would take a lot of blurring out.

Any advice? 400 bucks doesn’t even cover my car payment, which is this coming week. I’m going to have to swallow my pride and ask my dad for a loan.
