I mean you guys are right in that she could have found a different job or taken a side gig doing something; I'm just saying gently caress that company, too.

crabcakes66 posted:"If this situation were entirely different you people would look at it differently! loving Goons!" uh no numb nut the situation would be exactly the same but in a different city and someone who isn't a millennial. The situation is 'well educated employees paid well below a living wage even though the company can clearly afford it and the CEO's pay is 7 figures.'

Try reading the thread. She could very easily live right where she works if she was willing to live with roommates, which is very, very common in SF. Even for highly paid people working in tech. She also sure as hell isn't living on rice and starving to death as many people have already pointed out via her food pics and such. So gently caress her and her whining.

When you choose to move to cool, exciting, expensive cities like SF or Manhattan, the price you pay is lovely over-priced living quarters. Having a bunch of room mates or living in the worst room is part of the deal. She wasn't born there and trapped by poverty, she actively chose to go there. She knew her pay, She knew the rent. She should have realized the math didn't check out. Instead she decided to make up the difference on her credit card, and hope she'd be fast-tracked to promotion. She actively chose poverty. She doesn't get the same sympathy as someone born into it.

I'm sure she's still living like a poor person and either way it doesn't invalidate the overall point of gently caress that company for paying its employees so little? If she was TOTALLY full of it surely the CEO or the company would have released a PR statement along the lines of 'idk what she's talking about we paid her $50-60k a year' along with firing her. I didn't say she didn't gently caress up, just kinda lol at the amount of vitriol in here. Like, quote:She wasn't born there and trapped by poverty, she actively chose to go there.

Homeless library goon says he hates his job so he quit and is now homeless, goons line up to give him money! Millenial makes long post about being underpaid, internet detectives nitpick through every single meal she has posted on the internet ever in order to disparage her! Parallax Scroll posted:They probably assumed she would do what everyone else in the area does and live with roommates. steaks = chuck roast = $2/lb which is cheaper than ground beef and lol at 'gourmet cupcakes' based on an internet photo. for all you know that's just the dollar store cupcake mix and some whipped cream and a nice photo filter and a poor lying about it so as to not feel like such poo poo constantly. I mean sure she sounds like she exaggerated then which was probably not a good idea given the internet police but who fuckin cares that much jfc.

Why do people keep talking about living with roommates like it's some extreme concession only necessary for those living in metro areas. Every person in my age group (mid to late 20's) that I know has roommates unless they landed a job that brings in cash way above the average level. This is all over San Diego county (not anywhere near the metro area). Nobody can afford to live on their own. It's either parents or roommates for all of us.

All of California is like that, but not all of the United States is like this. Most of Arizona, you do not need a roommate unless you have a minimum wage job. Anything above that, even a few dollars an hour, you can get by living on your own even in Phoenix. Just a handful of places in Arizona would require roommates.

What do you want them to pay her? I know a lot of people have said minimum wage, because that's kinna what she implied in her letter, however a few pages back a goon who is familiar with her exact position said it pays 35k/yr + benefits. Yeah that's still poo poo for the bay area, but I seriously doubt her job even requires a college degree or any work experience.

People 'whine' about their issues all the time, it's how things change. No one is going to do anything about it because we have social safety nets that make us comfortable enough to not force any real change. Plus a culture of being afraid to really speak up because entitlements and being treated like a human being are somehow considered awful. If Bernie Sanders becomes president, and we get a democrat controlled congress, then maybe real progress will be made. We will know at the end of this year. For now everyone is forced to sit tight, these things take awhile.
