Living here is cheap too, I need to start looking for a new job. I love being un-employed and all but I need to start building my motor and buying other parts to get my car back up and running.

Good luck at Toyota CK, the Toyota here can eat my ass.

 

[Ckanderson]

i get 8.50 hr for management..but then again..i got hired as part time at 7.35 and moved up from P/T to F/T managment within a year.. and advance does yearly raises..so this time around...i got my fingers crossed..or my legs do the negotiating.

 

[Ckanderson]

[americanjebus]

wtf? 600 a month is awesome. single bedroom? thats not bad at allll. a friend of mine is paying around 1100 for a single bedroom.

wow things sure are different in other parts of the country. i wont even get into how much i get paid as a PT deli counter person. the agian, its nothing with the cost of living over here.

 

[Ckanderson]

I can see 10 bucks an hour not supporting the cost of living in CA.

FL's cost of living isn't nearly as bad and we have nice LONG LONG bridges around here

 

[malloynx]

yea that is shitty. i just turned down a job for 16$ an hr cause that is too low for me.
did you try to negoiate your salary? how much do you think your worth/net worth.

can you validate 15$ an hr. (school, credentals, prior military, certifications)

 

[Ckanderson]

yes.. my last job (an internship) paid 21. im worth at least 20.

 

[mkiiSupraMan18]

geez, my current job pays $7.29....... I'm friggin awesome........

 

[malloynx]

keep looking , i'm sure you'll find something. how is your portfolio? and MASTER resume?

 

[Loki]

My last job I was making $11 cdn, the job I'm looking at getting next pays $12 cdn. I'd be happy with that

Im with ya man.

Seems that most employers think you're worth $10 an hour no matter what you do.

BS.

Thats why I went back to working for myself 100% of the time. Im a full time skilled tig welder, and I searched and searched. $10 an hour my ass to be your head TIG aluminum & stainless welder.

 

[mkiiSupraMan18]

another year and 9 months and I'll be working in the AC making well over $20/hr doing cake work..

This is a reason that school pays off....

Honestly, you cant expect to start somewhere making more, or the same amount as people who have been working there for quite awhile. Bite the bullet, suck it up..... prove you're worth the money and they should adjust accordingly....... but I'm not out in the "real world", living in my parent's basement, not paying rent.... no bills *just insurance and the like*.... no wife/kids..... But $10/hr compared to....? What are you doing for $10 hr? If you're complaining about standing behind a counter for $10/hr, I'd like to hear your dream job and what it pays.....

 

[Ckanderson]

well i have lots of qualifications....... ase and shit i just am tired of wrenching... i wanna do sales. im goin to sema and ill see what pans out from talking to the companies.
