Got a $1.25/hr raise today.

Finnydot · 05-29-2018, 11:45 PM

Puts me at $11.25,which isn't much. No benefits, working 38 about a week so i don't go OT.

Previously, I've been paying rent and child support straight from my check. My boss deducts them from my check before i get them. This was why i wrote about cashing a check for $2.50. After taxes in sure it'll only be about $45-50 a check, butat least that's cigs/weed money. Lmfao

Shit is getting real.

Side note, just took my last lexapro today. Hopefully i can get it refilled quickly. Shit has been working wonders for me.

What’s stopping you from cutting out weed/cigs? Maybe it’ll benefit your overall health as well as your mental state? Maybe not doing drugs can help you find a better job? Because drug tests..

Have you considered getting a second job?

Either way, congrats on the raise. Progress is progress.

There you go

This sounds sad as fuck to be honest lol...like damn bro. And how they garnishing so much I thought they're only allowed to take out X% of how much u make?

Amen · 05-30-2018, 07:13 AM

Cool, Finny. Keep pushing.

DMS · 05-30-2018, 01:59 PM

Yeah, I thought they could only take 75% to 50 depending on location.

Finnydot · 05-30-2018, 03:57 PM

I was quoted as making $1500 a check when they audited me for CS. That was a 6month old figure. I pay $240 a check for $480/mo in CS. Plus around $500/mo rent plus a $40 phone bill. That's not even figuring cost of living.

This is a substantial improvement.

Destroyer · 05-30-2018, 03:59 PM

Quit smoking dude
Seriously. That shit costs too much on your budget
It will help other shit too

Mediocrity · 05-30-2018, 04:00 PM

Congrats bro keep grinding, maybe look into money management classes/courses/books.

Could be a good investment.

Why were you "quoted" at that amount?

Did you provide a W2 of previous years earnings and/or pay stubs?

Heard rumors your a cop or something like that but yea i mean to each their own. People do what they have to in order to make a living and when you get fucked on some b.s like child support (granted it's not all bs.) It makes it that much more difficult but hey maybe things will pan out for him. Best of luck
