Yeah, he's right, I make $6.60/hr and after taxes, an 20 hour week is only like $160. You hand better find a damn good job.

And by the way, that was after working as a lifeguard for a while at $8/hr, then going through some long training to get to $10/hr.

If you want that kind of money, dont expect to have time for such petty things as sleep, mealtime, or bathroom breaks.

hmmm....I usually don't get those anyway, so does that mean I'm gonna be rich?

Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

my last job I routinely worked 110-120 hrs every paycheck and after taxes I only brought home around $400. And that was every 2 weeks. Good friggin luck finding somewhere to pay you $500. The most I ever managed was working full time for $8 an hour and I was only bringing home $300 a week. And I am only 20.

Well if you make 200 a week (and you have to be a work-a-holic at age 15, and 5.50 minimum wage or whatever) then in a year youre brining home 10 grand, how female of the dog species' of a car do you want? For 5 grand you can get something nicer than anything your age will have.

If only lack of sleep was a joke, they'd have to drug me to stop the laughter.

Today was my last exam, schools out. From now on my sleep will be much better, instead of 1am to 6:30am sleeping, it'll be 3-5am to 11am-3pm.
