@Cold Blooded what career/job do you currently have?
I'm in trucking now / longshoreman minus the union...I lucked up and found this job through a temp but I had to fight for this 30...
Peep game the agency was paying me 30 then the old boss tried to finesse me and say she wanna bring me on permanent full benefits and all that but only pay me 25 ...I was like nah I can't go backwards bytch...so I held out and got on permanent with the 30 when the new boss came...

My job duties are heqvy equipment op. Plus I do office shyt and safety shyt...I honestly deserve more...I still want more fukk these employers breh they will low-ball you
That's what I'm confused about. There's a lot of pushback in here when I know alot of people aren't even making $21 an hour and are managing to get by. It just comes down to lifestyle choices. But the cheat code is to find a compatible partner that makes the same or more. That's how you truly flourish out here.
Or your Patna should at least be managing the house don't even need to have a lot of money just a utility bill here and there and watching the kids and shyt can work out

Some people want to do more than just get by. How many generations of struggle do you need? Personally, there has been more than enough in my family. I’m ready for some wealth tales, being broke is the same ol story.

Honestly if y'all nikkas want to just get by in the boonies then by all means.

If I ain't got a 401k, maxxing Roth IRA, and still $1000 leftover I'm not happy. $21/hr aint that.:manny:

Every state outside of California, northeast, Washington State, DMV, would eat good off $21 an hour.

my uncle in Mississippi makes $22 an hour at a Warehouse, and he thinks every chick that messes with him is a gold digger :shaq2:

Y'all nikkas really bringing up dusty ass bummy ass Mississippi. What's next, telling restaurant workers to move to a trailer park? :wtf:

How can I make sure employers don't low-ball me in the future?

Also, if you get a job through a temp agency how does that work? I might need to try that. I live in Americus, Georgia and make only 10 dollars an hour at a restaurant part time.
