ten seventy-four

After two straight days of job searching, I have learned that my $90,000 education matches up to jobs which pay $10.74 an hour.

BAH HUMBUG!

This is the part of the novel where you either make a deal with the devil or sell out, leaving legions of fans to wonder why they ever bothered with your anti-establishment albums in the first place.

Me too!

Me too!

(Walter and Perry voices.)

Or, going by what I'm scoring right now, $6.20/hr. Alabama sucks.

It takes time, Jo. I had to settle for 10, then 12, then 14 and hour jobs before i finally got this one that can almost pay my bills and feed my family. The trick is to take something in your field, then look for something new every 6 months to a year.

By the wat ara, $6.20 an hour in alabama is like $50K a year anywhere else.
