Happy International Workers' Day!

By engineerdude91 - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I realized the benefits at Burger King are better than at my company. I'm an engineer, have three degrees, speak three languages fluently, and work at a multi-billion dollar company. The guy flipping burgers has better health care and more corporate 401k contributions than I do. FML
I agree, your life sucks 34 778

Are you stupid? The guy at BK brings home MAYBE 17k a year. I worked full time at Walgreens, and yeah, that's my yearly gross income. I actually got a paycheck of about $1000 a month. Full time. You make, what, 50k at least? That guy at BK would have to have 30k worth of benefits to even equal what you get. Get over yourself, OP. You worked hard to get where you are, and believe it or not, you're fairly compensated. If it's so bad being in your job, then why not get a job at BK? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Maybe you should apply for a job at Burger King then.

But I am sure that your salary more than makes up for it. Suck it up and get private health insurance.

noice! i ll trade ya lives? i wanna speak three dif languages fluently

Again, proving that college is a waste of time and money. I have 2 degrees, graduated both with honors and am unemployed at the moment!

What about basic salary that lets you purchase health care, retirement options, etc.?

Are you kidding me? I'm sure you make way way more than the burger king guy so shut up and quit whining.
