RE: The raise and inflation combo in 2022

in MemeHive2 years ago

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I recently returned to work after an 11 month sabbatical and despite several pay raises and earning decent wages for my area the increase in gas alone is taking a significant bite out of my income, such that I’m beginning to wonder if it’s even worth keeping the job.

Sort:  

Indeed this are hard times, but if you don't have any other income streams and can't change to a job closer to home you are doomed to pay these high gas prices and work at the same place just to make it trough the month.

Yeah. I returned to work because my holdings were bleeding away too quickly so if I stymie that it’s a win but I I don’t envy those living hand to mouth in this environment.
