I live in the Seattle area and wages for too damn low (they’ve barely gone up in the 13 years I’ve been here). Nothing should be paying less than $20 dollars and honestly minimum wage should be $25 an hour. I’m barely surviving and it’s depressing. Rent is ridiculous and so is the cost of everything else and forget about trying to go to school. I’m seriously considering checking out. This isn’t living.
