Big purchases this year though: Apple Watch, treadmill, and 2 AC units (not shown here because it was in July).

Are you part time or underpaid?

[-] amnesiaftw@ani.social 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The figure you see there is after tax. Though it also includes $3K of my tax return.

I make $18.50/hour full time. Not including a profit sharing check at the end of the year which, last year, brought it up to an average of roughly $30/hr but it obviously heavily depends on the years’ profits.

In what world is making 30k/yr considered part time? Everyone is underpaid but even then, I've spent a good chunk of my adult life making under 30k as a full time worker. Even now, my wife and I (1 full time, 1 part time) are on track to earn ~55k this year combined

$30k/year is what I'd consider part time salary in the twin cities.
