I’m lucky that I can say yes. That said, I still wouldnt do it for free. What about you, how do you feel about your job/career/field in general?

      Yes, USD. There are no people I meet anymore who think it’s a good salary. They think it’s poverty.

      I was at a party two nights ago and people asked me what I did, and they immediately excused themselves once they found out my job.

        The median US full time salary is 62k, you’re earning 2 and a half times that. Anyone who tells you that’s poverty is either full of shit or deliberately trying to bring you down.

          No, they are just people who make 200K-300K and think they are in poverty and struggling, so they think anyone who makes slightly less must also be living on the streets.

          They don’t acknowledge that people who make 62K are people. They are NPCs to them. And I am too.

            i agree with you and everyone else here. you are finding the wrong people in the wrong places.

            that said… sorry, but ‘everyone’ isnt making 2-300k everywhere. you are causing your own bias somehow, somewhere in your selection process. there is no other rational explanation using, ya know, math.

              the median income in my city is well over 100K. you have to drive over an hour or two away to find median incomes in the 62K range.
