Pfft "animals" are just an illusion made up by shadow governments

Animals are like plants but with a few (0-5) legs and made of meat. You saying the government gives plants meat bodies?

But are you also going to make wild accusations about their politics?

Yes. Everything with more than four legs would vote to end womens suffrage and to give tax breaks to everyone who is white.

SKARDAVNELNATE posted...

These don't have legs though.

Mineral, plant, bacterium, or fungi are each known for not having legs at all. Wouldn't they be more animal the greater number of legs they have?

Close enough tbh.

No, the lower bound of legs for animals is 0. If you have -1 legs or fewer, you are not an animal. More than five legs makes you not an animal, but that doesnt mean everything with 0-4 legs is an animal. Also minerals arent alive so they cant be animals.

some animals can be born with more than 4

thats like saying some horses can be born with wings and a horn on their head. Theyre not horses!

It's an animal if it has a dedicated internal digestive system or whatever

Thats the second criteria. Must have four or less legs, must have an internal digestive system, must have eyes.

tc did you need a college degree? maybe i should look in my area for this kind of work

The requirements asked for a college degree, but honestly it seems like it only requires some basic knowledge of Word/Excel and the ability to file stuff away in a particular filing system. I'm sure a few years work experience would've been able to replace my degree.

My first "full time" was working with my grandfather at his business during the summer in middle/high school. Roughly 48 hours a week at $5 an hour.

My first on the books full time job was at a machine shop as a Hydraulic Press Operator, $7 an hour. Did it during breaks while I was in college.

I worked two jobs during college (not at the same time), both between 15-30 hours a week. I can't imagine having a full time job on top of being a student.

My first full-time job was like $8.50/hr and maybe $10/hr when I quit.

I make much more than that now and am able to sock a lot of it away, so I'm content with it.

nice! My first job was minimum wage, and I never got a raise, even after two years!

its not as self explanatory as you think lol. so you do only listen to singles?

If I enjoyed the Macarena, why wouldnt I spend a few minutes looking to see if I like another song by the same group? I liked the song Somebody that I used to Know, so I listened to some more Gotye, and found an artist I enjoyed. Like 90% of the artists I like I began listening to because I knew one song by them (a single, from a commercial, from a playlist, from a soundtrack, etc), and was interested in hearing more.

I don't really see the point in listening to more of a one hit wonder's catalog. I'll hear people say "they're actually pretty decent" but everyone has at least some deep cuts that are better than the hits, it's not some weird phenomenon. There's no shortage of good music to find out there, I'm not gonna waste my time finding out if like fucking Smash Mouth is actually awesome

so do you only listen to singles? Or does an artist need 2 hits before you're willing to listen to their deep cuts? Seems kinda arbitrary to not listen to one-hit-wonders specifically.

Denver cost of living is not lower than anywhere in Texas to my knowledge, sorry to burst your bubble. It's not as bad as the coastal cities but it's still pretty ridiculous, lots of $1500 studios/1 beds, $600k houses, etc.

If I move to Denver, it'll be because my SO got a job there. And she's a six-figure earner, so I'd be okay making rent haha. I myself might get a higher salary if we move, too! I'm sure CO has a higher minimum than TX, anyway.

I worked part time gigs throughout high school.. I think only 1 of them paid the legal minimum wage
I needed a job after losing unemployment (my brother made being on unemployment for years look easy) so I started at 2 nights a week - cash in hand - at a restaurant
It moved up to 4-5 nights, sometimes both lunch and dinner shifts (12 - 13 hour days) which was about $100 a day + $100 or so tips every week or 2
Free dinner was the only benefit I think as health coverage works differently in Australia

It was enough to help out my girlfriend with her rent and bills after her roommate up and ditched her, then when we split my costs where deduced, I managed to save and moved to the US

Over here I've worked a good paying job with few hours, a crap paying job with lots of hours and eventually a good paying job (started at $13, it's now about $21) with guaranteed 40 hours a week

Only issue I have right now is that like a lot of other businesses, we're short staffed which means more work for everyone else :/

I'm glad you're making it happen! Being overworked and short-staffed sucks, and is unfortunately a thing a lot of places are experiencing right now. Have you tried asking for a riase? My mom works for a business that is short staffed and unable to fill positions, and she got a decent raise when management felt that employees were becoming frustrated with the increased workload.

In Olympia, subsidized housing alone, for a 1b apartment, is in the high 800s before washer and dryer. Average rent here is a few hundred more a month, and again that's before the 3x requirement. Min wage for a full 40 hours a week might barely touch a 2x requirement. Considering hw much employers love making it 35 or 37.5 hours a week, and again for the 300% thing? Forget about living alone with a suitable amount of space to store your stuff. :-/

My first full time (2006) I believe paid $8 an hour to start out. Minimum here was $5.15 at the time and is currently $7.25.

I'm at $19.83 on my current job today and I do well with it, but primarily because my pay structure earns me double pay after 48 hours and I typically work 56-60 a week.

It helps that my mortgage is pretty affordable.

that's a lot of work! I'm afraid of working 40 hours <_< like idk if I'm built to work that many hours a week lmao

1) "Paid," not "payed." I know that you're alt-facts, but can you at least not be alt-spelling?

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-was-only-pretending-to-be- r*******

2) Federal or state/local? Because the federal is... $7.25, whereas some areas are as high as $15.20

Texas keeps the federal minimum wage. $7.25. Texas has a lower cost of living than a lot or places with higher minimums, so I figured saying I made 2.5x minimum provided more context than "$18 per hour"

Which is understandable, since as your career progresses your money should going up.

I'd take a pay cut for better benefits tbh

...which is sad.

Yeah it is sad that this country has a lot of disparity in resources, education, and aid for minorities and women. But you get by with what you got. Or you die, I suppose. A lot of poor people die because they're poor. That's sad, too.

Well, if it's 2.5x the federal that's still under $40k which isn't terrible in most red states although it doesn't go nearly as far in most blue states (where the minimum wage is higher anyway)

It's definitely not "terrible". It comes out to about 36k, and in 2019, the median personal income in the US was about 36k. In Texas, it's closer to 31k. I just feel that I have a strong enough skill set to have a better job and be getting paid more. Maybe in a few months I'll find something better.

Entity13 posted...

I remember and miss when the amount was double rather than triple, and feel there needs to be a legal cap to such requirements. It would help a lot of people keep a roof over their heads.

I work in a grocery store, doing food service work, so I am exposed to people at varying levels of health and risk every day. I'm vaccinated and wearing my mask, but the risk remains, especially now with the delta variant.

That does sound dangerous. idk what it's like where you are, but in my town (and all of Texas, it seems) I only see about 20% of people wearing a mask, and like 50% are vaccinated. You definitely deserve the hazard pay. Have you been working there long?

first full time job i had was working as a sales associate for a retail chain making $7 an hour. that was almost 20 years go. im now doing basically electrician work at $29 an hour.

dunno if id call it "happy" work. can be stressful and backbreaking, but its decent money and i tend be left alone most of the time due to weird hours. where i live the money can go a long way so im free to invest and save most of what i make. i intend to retire within the next 5 years hopefully.

Not too shabby! Retiring early sounds like a dream. I did a retirement calculator thing online and it seems like I'll never be able to retire <_< i don't understand how one can save enough to do it. Good luck!

Credit card debt, yes, absolutely...

Student loans, maybe not so much...

There's something to be said for the peace of mind that comes from being debt-free...

If all goes to plan, I will be out of credit card debt by the end of January. Student loans are on pause until February so it works out nicely.

My current "plan" has me paying off my loans in 6-7 years, but you're saying it might be better to stretch it to the full 10 years my loan provider is suggesting? I don't have the numbers but I feel like the money I would lose on interest is killer, even if the rate is low :(

Clench281 posted...

If your student loan rates are under 5%, you might be better off making the minimum payment and instead investing the rest in a broad fund

some are between 3-5%, but a couple are 5-7%. I think my highest interest rate is 7.1%.

I've been unemployed for nearly two years now. I'll be starting a part-time job next Wednesday.

It will pay a little more than minimum wage, but I am glad to at least have found a legitimate job that can help cover that gaping chasm in my r\'esum\'e.

thats great! I hope it gives you more opportunities down the road.

About two years, I was saving up between college and grad school while living with my parents (rent free). I bought a used car ($8k) and built up an emergency fund of about $15k because I'd be living on the other side of the country without knowing anyone.

Thats a healthy chunk to have saved up! Im going to be able to save a little bit (200-400 a month), but Im putting a lot of money into paying off credit card debt and student loans. Hopefully thats the right move.

my first job back in 2002 paid me $5.10 which was the minimum wage at the time

Was this your first full time job and you had expenses, or was all of that mostly spending/saving money?

Entity13 posted...

I make a little over minimum wage, plus hazard pay (which may or may not go away soon), for about 17.90 an hour. I'd be happy with at least 26 an hour with the current cost of rent, for which places ask we make triple what they want per month. <_<

Most apartments here also ask that your monthly income is 300-400% the amount that rent costs. Its rough. Luckily Im not paying rent until next summer, otherwise Id have to find a roommate or two (my credit isnt great either, which doesnt help). Is what you do particularly hazardous?

Texas keeps minimum at a healthy $7.25. Im making $18.

If you're not a C-level/VP you probably deserve more than you're getting

I make a decent enough amount to live but I'm still underpaid for what I do. I've seen what other places pay for a similar position and most of them are like 25% more pay minimum, some are nearly double

yeah nearly everyone is underpaid for sure. My gf makes more than double what I do and I still think shes underpaid. Are you still in Colorado? Maybe the cost of living is lower where you are, especially compared to big coastal cities. Id say theres about a 20% chance that I end up in Denver in a year I kinda hope I do!

I start a new job on Monday (my first full time position) and Im being payed almost 2.5x the minimum wage. Its more than Ive ever made (or my parents made for that matter), and I dont have a ton of expenses, but it still feels like Im making basically nothing. keeping my hopes up that Ill get a better job in a few months.

still, Im grateful for the money to buy food, pay my debts, and still have enough to put a small amount into savings. and maybe now Ill be able to have a phone again. Woo

anyway whats up with you, potd? How much money did you make at your first full-time job? How much do you make now? Are you happy with what you earn? Do you deserve more?

I still wonder about Dani sometimes. She vanished suddenly around 2010 or 2011. Some of the others from the Ocarina of Time board apparently had her on social media and before she vanished she'd post updates about her health. She had some medical issue, I'm not sure what it was. I remember her mentioning that she was excited for Skyward Sword but anxious if she'd be able to play it with motion controls, so maybe it was related to mobility, I don't know.

Dani was a weird poster but always seemed like a good person. I hope nothing bad happened but given that she spent years posting every single day and then vanished immediately, it's hard to stay optimistic.

Yeah she was a cool cat, from what I remember. Granted I was like 11 or 12 when I was a regular on that board, but I remember her being a really nice person. I made this topic because I found an old journal of mine that talked about the OoT board, and it mentioned her lmao
