so how about i got a raise today from 8$ an hour to 9.25$ an hour thats an extra 100 bucks per check, my loan takes out a 100 dollars each check, so basically, its like all my debt is eliminated n i'm still making 8!! fuck yea boy!
well i do alot of shit like drywall/plaster-mudding, demo, painting, cleaning, cleanup work, strip wall paper, overall handyman shit repairing damage to houses caused by shit covered by insurnace like water breaks or flooding 95% of the time though, they just put me on painting jobs, because i'm one of the best or so i've been told when our production manager called me into his office n told me to close the door i didnt know what to think, n then he was like "theres been alot of talk about you shamrock man (cuz i have a clover tat on my neck)" n i was like "oh yea? like what?" n he said "that your one of the best painters out of helpers and crew chiefs, and that you really help the crew cheifs get alot more done, so i talked to Gary (one of the owners) and we're gonna give you a dollar 25 raise.. and if you keep up the work it'll also show in your bonus's too, i think i tripled it last time right?" i guess i'm pretty good at what i do
For a career yes, for $9.25 no. I don't know anyone who enjoys their low pay job. I make 7.25 an hour, and let me tell you nothing is more important that how much you make.
Congrats man i started a new job at $7.50 when they told me $8 an hour..even though it's easy money so i'll stick around
