Give me one single person who is "working their way up" from a bullshit minimum wage job? And I specify JOB, not someone who's working 80+ hours a week with two employers just to keep their head above water. If you're going to accuse me of lying, give me some proof. Everything I've said I am completely capable of backing up with documents, sources, and even third parties. If you don't want to help me, fine. If you think I'm lying, fine. But don't fucking accuse me of shit you have NO IDEA about. Don't present shit as fact if you have nothing but your own personal speculation.
Income - costofbareboneliving = saving is still true.
You should be happy to get whatever money you can, whatever job you can, but you act like you're TOO GOOD for McDonalds.
So what if you are insignificant, replaceable, and unimportant? If you can buy warm blankets and food, as well save a little, it's a win.
