45k is only $865/week. Aldi is probably the highest paying market around at a little over $13/hr. so figure it out. Talk to some of the people working here or look online at the help wanted adds. Yea I can believe they're making more with the extra unemployment.
Right, agree. I am one of these making far less than 45K. Believe me this is no woe is me, I love my job in healthcare, been in it a number of years. I see how quickly lives can change with just one test. Am always amazed at how polite people can be at possibly the worst times of their lives. Many are an inspiration, this is why I stay in the field. Sorry to get off topic here a bit but I am speaking my reality. Back to the topic, know 4 people furloughed, not by my employer who is not doing this, that will make much more not working.
