My wage has not budged in four fucking years and no wages in Oklahoma have gone up if anything they going down.
My company will not give raises and I get paid more than any other person in my field and it isn't enough.
They literally offering jobs here at 12 an hour you be lucky to see 15 with bunch bullshit stipulations.
I'm sorry that some states are shitholes, with shitty people trying to make them shittier. I live in one too.
Low taxes, but low benefits to its citizens, so people don't really want to live there. Poor healthcare, poor education, fewer opportunities for the arts and the things that make life worth livin'. It's a cycle of poverty and despair, and it's awful.
When I get money, I'm moving out. But I may never have enough money.
Cool, you're an outlier. Get out of here with anecdotes and come back with real data.
Come Oklahoma asshole better yet look up jobs here and see what they pay. It isn't shit. Not outliner go look at fucking jobs and what they pay. All the data you need is right there.
NO ONE IS PAYING A FUCKING LIVING WAGE. Homeless is going up everything is but fucking pay. So full of shit. Show your data and not from propaganda machine that is mainstream media.
Tell me about it. It seems like no one looks at job postings to see what companies are actually hiring at.
If they do it's selective to their profession, or across highly educated professions. Then they can argue "well, git gud scrub." Completely ignoring how a gigantic portion of the population is stuck working those shit paying jobs.
Wage data doesn't come from the mainstream media you dope
