Who can relate....

So i work 8 physical hrs a day, 5 days a week. Should be 40 straight hours right?
Now..i am horrible at math but even i know thats not 36 hrs. Even if lunch is not paid..it should still be 7 hrs a day 5 days a week to equal 35 hrs. So why then is after taxes, fees, and dental/ vision i am only making 400 bucks a week? 15.00 per hr folks.. whats wrong with common core math? You work 4 hrs free and if u want to pay ur bills, THEY DONT CARE.
I need a different job that doesnt keep jacking up my check and ruing my pay.

I can relate. Im in a skilled labor union so my situation is better but not by as much as it should be.

Laborers of any kind are the most exploited workforce in the country

You are down by $125 based on 35-hours. Don’t know your tax rate, but that’s a lot for dental and vision every week. It’s all a scam to take from the poor, and give to the already wealthy.
