Unionize!

Today, I found out the unionized cleaning people that empty the garbage and clean the toilets make $19/hr and have more paid time off than I do with my college degree. FML

That sucks op, but if you go through your career focusing on what others are earning you'll never be satisfied

Go clean up someone else's crap and report back to us on whether or not you still believe they should be paid so little.

I don't have a college degree, and I make more than the cleaning people.

Is it bad that I read it as un-ionized people? As in a person who has yet to be ionized, like an atom in chemistry? School has definitely began.

Why is this under intimacy? Did you find out this info while sleeping with a cleaner?

I have a bachelor's degree in liberal studies with a focus on literature and music. I wait tables. Today, I did the math, and I made ~23/hour before taxes. When I worked in an office, I made $10/hour before taxes. Some of us make decisions about what we're going to do based on the money, not the prestige.
