Good Job>Lots of money>Graal

Hello!

I know this is almost bordering on unethical and silly, but it seems I have aquired an unusually well paying job (as a supervisor), as well as doing some dancing! As a result, I'm making enough money to plausibly purchase an upgrade and afford school/girlfriend. Therefore, I guess I'm going to come back as a player and nothing else (I don't want to work as a staff member anywhere in the near future). Luckily, this job also gives me a great deal of time in the day where I will be doing nothing (7AM-3PM, so I have lots of afternoon and evening to be recreational).

Bling bling.

Full-time job? Aren't you still in the education route? Or is it summer / time-out time?

It's full time but only seasonal (for the summer). It's a $10/hour thing, for 37.5 hours a week. I was expecting more like minimum wage ($6.80 an hour) for about the same amount of time, so this is quite a boost on what I was expecting. I figure I have a little money to play with now, so I decided to resubscribe (I find Zone to be quite entertaining).

$6.80 an hour in minimum wage in America? Man that sucks, how could anyone live off that

Worse, in Canada. The dollar is worth even less.

Talent. Lots and lots of talent.

Lol, I almost feel sorry for Canadians with minimum wage if theirs is the same as ours.

Ah cool, so do you supervise dancing? or what?

And I believe that's more than us, even with the bias exchange rates, as 16 - 18s only get £3.25? I think it's that, by law, although most seem to pay the £3.65 at minimum, which works out at $6.65.

A couple points:
The use of the phrase 'bling bling' died off a couple years ago, only confused white kids and that stupid 'BLING IT ON' commercial use it now.

The minimum wage is lower then $6.80 in America now.

When will these hello/goodbye threads stop being posted by you? Make up your damn mind.

With that being said, play ball!

On the plus side, you probably won't need to wait long for a second chance.

It was raised because *****y Americans like capitalism, but want it to work directly for them, thus removing the brutal side of captitalism.

Just like a buffet, Americans pick which part they want.

Anyways, I want a job. Give me your job.

(If that sounded unpatriotic, here's a disclaimer. America is great. Americans usually aren't. People in america rock, but when you gather thousands of them, the average IQ usually drops around a 92.)
