This is life on $7.50 an hour

[Rawtid]

But how long can she do that for until her body can’t take it anymore? What’s the long term plan

My aunt has been a welder for over 20 years.

Should've went to college for an actually valuable degree or learned a trade

Edit: The excuses in here. Jesus Christ you nikkas are defeated.

Ok that’s good, never really hear about women in trades like that and I have no idea how long they work for.

Construction appears to be the most continuous labor intensive trade, from what I see. The others don’t appear to require as much physical exertion, although I’m sure they have their moments

It's hilarious how many people came in here to shyt on her when McDonald's is getting away with paying people $7.50/hr at the time of the video.

nobody stays on 7.50, but its ok this lady is just a vehicle for the continued Robespierre class war we got going on.

That is like £5.8 which is far below both the minimum and the living wage.

That is some high level worker exploitation.

well i could ask you if you've optimized your resume, if you did an internship, if you're willing to move, if you made connects, etc, but the more i see things, the more i see that many of these whites will see a black face and immediately disqualify them in their minds, even doing everything right. all that other shyt can help, but it's much more difficult for us.

No I'm not willing to move, connects cant guarantee a job, I done tried that multiple times, my resume is finely written, i did an externship. I look at it as either you gone be security, a warehouse/ plant worker/ truc driver/ janitor or you ain't gone really be shyt else (it's rare in my eyes) we niccas in they eyes.

Over 2000 Facebook "friends" and none of them can help her out eh?

Not to sound sexist but what trades can a woman really do long term?

plus with trades she’ll need to find someone to baby sit the baby or pay someone.

She has a choice. Get a degree and an office job or a skill trade that doesn't require manual labour. There are plenty of options. This is not a pull up your bootstraps post... it's about not putting yourself into shytty situations.

Yeah there's racism but now what? Are we going to twiddle our thumbs and do nothing with a defeatist attitude or are we actually going to try and improve our situation?
