Definitely is. Only last year was my state finally like, "Alright, look... we'll give you like $9 an hour.  :| "

 

My state would never even do that. We're like "can it be less for us, can we pay them in happy meals and damaged product?"

how on earth to people survive?

 

I make 16/hr full time, and I mean... I pay my bills.. and I have enough to get myself some stuff if I'm feeling froggy,

but I am most definitely not rollin' in the dough!

how can people live off of 9?

(it would be a LOT easier if I rented out my spare room, but I prefer to live alone)

Yeah, it's bullshit.

 

I mean, if you're working full-time (which NO ONE hires you for, it's all part-time at 30 hours a week if you're super lucky), and you live in a studio apartment (which you can rent for like $400 a month if it's real shitty), you'll almost kinda get by. So that's nice.  ::]::

We'e 7.25/hr min wage, though there have been some lawmakers who have tried to get it raised to 10/hr.

Where I live most places will start you off around 11/hr depending on your experience. If you have a six month training cert. for CNC milling you can start around 15/hr and usually get

closer to 17/hr after a year.

 

Cost of living around here is pretty low as well. Median home price is 75k and food is fairly cheap. 

 

 

Edit: You know why employers are only hiring on PT work right? 

 

 

Course you do.....  -_'

Over 4 out of every 5 jobs are service industry jobs, and the majority of those don't start at $11/hr in Indiana, you're just making that number up.

 

You're trying to lie to people and blame the Affordable Care Act because you think tens of millions of people getting better healthcare is such a terrible thing and want to pit desperate workers against their own interests.

 

Not in my thread. Reported for dragging your slimy hemorrhoids through here, you potbellied piece of shit.

Or maybe they can't afford to offer insurance....

 

::spin::

 

True, they can't, not with all of the inefficiencies and waste built into our system which prices people out of preventive healthcare and mandates the existence of private, for-profit insurance companies allowed to charge whatever they want without competiton from a public Medicare-for-all single payer program, which you oppose despite it being infinitely more fiscally responsible, dooming your​ foul pisslord soul to hell on the far off chance that it exists.

honestly I can't imagine that!

I remember my first job was in a kitchen at Hole in the Wall Gang Camp and I hated it so much and made NO money so I said fuck it and waited until this one fell into my lap.

 

many years later I have a townhouse

I guess I'm just really one of the fortunate ones

 

Thank you God!

 

ya'll can come live with me though

He is a Republican politician whose salary is paid for by taxes, in a way it's like we're all Ginguy's boss except we can't fire him for shitty services rendered because the people of West Central Indiana are too stupid to realize he's out here killing people.
