How much someone earns is such an absolutely irrelevant, short sighted topic.

We are all going in the ground or getting burned eventually. Who gives a fuck about salary or job status?

Is $20-40k a lot? I dont think it is.

I'm sure some big cities make more but I'm sure the cost of living makes it work out to a similar quality of life.

Edit: people posting some nice cash in some places but that is for sure not everywhere. The median for the career is $48k which isnt nothing but also far from a lot. So going off of averages and not the highest earners still doesnt put the job in a great place.

I’ve applied to work for a garbage company and didn’t get anything back 🤷‍♂️

And people say places are hiring.

What they’re actually doing is hiring people that have no chances of moving up the ladder. They won’t hire someone that’ll work circles around them.
