Oh and minimum wage at 15 is not helping folks as much since significant inflation this year.

Thats how it works, they raise the wage and everything goes up in price. Nothing changes, still equals out to the same. I got on section 8 this year and they raised my rent 30 bucks! I dont know if its inflation or if its because I now have assistance, either way its criminal.

Although I tend to complain I'm doing o.k. I do much better than minimum wage. At the end of the month I am still able to put a little $$$ away into my savings. But with home and car repairs it doesn't seem to stay there for very long.

My landlord raised my rent 25 bucks as soon as a overhyped news update regarding the corporation I work for of pay raises for employees. It was not regarding employees in the state I live in. So, I have 0 money to save and hours have been cut so bad that nobody below management makes a living wage. Hope things change. I got 4 days this week, but 2 next week. Smh. Cant afford my place anymore after next month.

Just really fucked up times we are experiencing in this world.

^^^I'm so used to high gas prices that I don't even say anything about it anymore. But the grocery bill is CRAZY! Every time I go grocery shopping it seems the prices have gone up!

It'd be a pay cut. The land of great floods and longer winters. I dont drive & don't plan on it. I'll get on that move right away boss.
