Money! Get away

By Disgruntled - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States - Jamestown

Today, it's been exactly two years since I got my last raise, and the amount I'd got still allows me the luxury of being able to afford a Snickers bar every month. FML

If you don't want the bar.....I'll have it.

Your not yourself when you're hungry. So I guess you're never yourself.

You'd think the hassle of programming a raise of a ha'penny an hour into the payroll software would be more effort than it was worth. First, you'd have to do a lot of research to find tiny units of currency.

Psh, I`ve been working at the same place for over 3 years at minimum wage with no raise. At least you`ve gotten a raise there so I don`t see a reason to complain.

So that's where the baby bunny I get every month and name Snickers goes.. Curse you! I want my bunnies back :(

Quit complaining, there are plenty of people out there who aren't even lucky enough to have a job.

I chuckled at this more after the edit. Sarah Mclachlan could make the most miserly among us donate whatever she asked. Those pet commercials make me cry. ):

For whatever reason, Noor, your comment brought to mind an image of one of those African kids with the bloated belly and flies buzzing around his head sending the OP a quarter saying, "Here, buddy, you need this more than I do. Your life sucks!"

I think at that point I would start looking for a second job, part-time. That's no way to live.

Snickers are so good! Especially, right out of the fridge! I always eat it in layers, leaving the peanuts for last.(:

This instantly reminded me of the Betty White Snickers commercial. Where does she get all that strength??
