      If you’re working 60 hours a week like a lot of the salaried people I work with, that brings your hourly pay down to $11.80. I just can’t imagine why someone would take a job like that when there are so many hourly entry level jobs that pay more than that.

        people take shit jobs with shit pay because they don’t have any other options

        so many hourly entry level jobs that pay more than that

        not for much longer would be my guess
