Because of inflation
I live in CA and I was an office manager for 3 years and have 5 years experience in the medical field. This position is for a medical office. Other offices I’m applying for are starting at $17-$18.
Am I wrong in saying her comment was out of line?
Edit: What I did not mention in my original post is that I have Bachelor’s degree in English. I understand it’s not STEM degree or in the field I work in, but for front office/clerical, a degree that emphasizes organization, detail orientation, research, data entry, and multi tasking, I feel my degree does apply.
Edit 2: I live in Northern California. Cost of living is a little different than the larger cities. Regardless a 2 bd 1 bath is $1,200 - $1,500 for rent alone where I reside, food prices have gone up, gas has gone up, a single person cannot live like that on simply minimum wage, excuse me, 50 cents more for minimum wage.
Edit 3: I just woke up and I just want to thank everyone. I want to thank you for coming together and proving we do have the power, we won’t settle for less than our worth. Thank you for the awards, and thank you for those who have reached out for other job ideas/positions/opportunities. This proves we are making strides and we can come together to some true change.
Edit 4: I contacted them and asked them to remove me from their list. I will no longer be going through temp agencies.
Edit 5: I have asked the name of the temp agency, it’s Adecco.
“Why so cheap?” she asked the pet store owner. The owner said, “Well, this bird used to live in a brothel, and occasionally it says some pretty vulgar stuff.” The woman thought about this, but decided that for $50, she just had to have the bird.
She took the bird home, hung the cage up in the living room, and waited for it to say something. The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, “New house, new madam.” The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought “Meh… That's really not so bad” and laughed it off.
When her two teenage daughters got home from school, the bird saw them and said, “New house, new madam, new girls!!!” The girls and the woman were a bit offended, but then laughed about the situation – considering how and where the parrot had been raised.
A few moments later, the woman’s husband got home from work. The bird looked at him and said, “New house, new madam, new girls, welcome back Keith!!!”

He stopped doing it after 30 years. He's played a sheep, a cow, Joseph, and even Mary once...
It turns out he never made it as a wiseman
Things that really upset me that he won't acknowledge.
-
Grabbing boobs and butt in front of kids despite asking him not to.
-
Comments in front of his family about me not paying or contributing to home.
-
Constant sexual innuendos for every single conversation to the point I don't want to talk anymore.
-No boundaries with touching and personal space.
-Stalks my period cycle. Counts down to when it's coming and when it's finished so he can pester for sex again.
-Every time i meet up with my best friend he jokes we are lesbians.
-Quizzes me as to why my friend has no other close friends and just me.
-constant hinting for anal sex despite saying no.
-Jealous of the dog and says it gets more attention than him.
-Jealous our kids get to tell me their news first and goes insane when he can't speak first.
-Is a member of filthy WhatsApp groups with porn etc.
-Makes sexual references and jokes about me in front of tradesmen or people who call to the house.
-I'm 2 weeks out from hysterectomy and he's still hinting for sex.
I'm leaving anyway but just wanted some perspective from other women.
ETA: he also unlocks the bathroom door from the outside when I'm in the bath to come in and cop a feel. He also sniffs my underwear from the laundry basket.
ETA again - fuck you to the men inboxing me calling me names and abusing me. I must have struck a cord with your own behaviour for you to private message me abuse and not have the balls to publicly comment it. Pathetic.
This is a DM from u/babikababi. Just gonna publish them all now instead of deleting.
I wish your husband will be free of a sorry excuse to a wife like you. I'm almost 200% sure you are fat, unattractive and he can get better. I wish you break up with him so that poor victim will be free of your claws and find a the woman he deserves. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
u/charlesmillesmaddox is another pig sending me abuse.
For context, I'm a personal trainer.
Where I am, you can be a personal trainer in two ways:
-
You go freelance. You keep whatever your clients pay you, but you pay a gym or studio rent to use their facilities ($700 is a pretty standard amount here)
-
You're an employee of a gym. You don't pay gym rent, but instead you only get paid a percentage of all the personal training revenue you bring in. (Plus you get standard employment benefits like sick pay, holiday pay, health care etc.)
My boss wants both...
He wants me to pay $700 a month gym rent, plus 50% of all my personal training income. Plus, as a freelancer, I'll get none of the "benefits of employment" listed above.
What do you think? Tell him to go fuck himself?
Yup that's what I thought.
Edit: thanks for the solidarity and advice, folks. Anyone know where I can find out if this is actually illegal?
Second edit: some confusion over the relationship here. He is currently my boss. But he wants to terminate my contract and hire me as a freelancer instead because it would be more "mutually beneficial"
Third edit: this is a private gym in an upmarket redisential building. They don't pay for membership because it's included in their rent. The guy who is still my boss at this moment owns the whole building. So he's technically a property owner/developer, not really a gym owner. I'm the only trainer here and I run the gym.
How Kanye West your money in such a Ludacris manner?
If you can’t handle the 50% dump you don’t deserve the 500% pump…
Words (insert eg x% )that was used years ago as the go to for panic posts-
Since we are seeing a bit of volatility today and I’m starting to see panic posts some words from veterans here from years ago to keep the chin up and HODL strong.
The market tend to have a bullwhip effect vs normal stock market nowadays so any move is exponentially larger. Part of the risk and excitement of being in the crypt. If you haven’t been here long (most people here have got into the crypt the last 4 months) this is part of the game and likely will be for a time. This is good as this also gives the gainz over time more than traditional markets.
The market is more mature than years gone by but the volatility is still there albeit less pronounced eg 80% drop in 2hrs - keep it simple (dont over trade)and HODL in what you believe in and may the gwei be with you….
PS this is something that has been part of crypto since the early days that hardens one to a new level of apathy and diamond hands the real test comes in when suicide lines come in at the post 30% drops to 80% drops. Again only have skin in the game in what you believe and make sure it’s quality bags!
"I know myself. I know how good I am. I know the things I've done. ... It's like -- how many times do I have to do something that no one else has ever done before and get respect? Do I have to go score 50 in a quarter now? Like, what the hell? It's whatever though, man. It's over with. I'm going to use it as fuel."
"I'm excited to get out there and prove to people who I am," Thompson says. "I know they forgot because I've been out for two years, but I've never been hungrier seeing that stuff. Never been hungrier. And the best way at revenge is to win. Seriously."

I have an extremely lucky friend and I wanna feel less salty. She won 10 50/50s back to back, and the only time she lost 50/50 isn’t even considered a loss because it was back to back five stars in one ten pull. If you don’t consider that one loss, she won a total of 15 times. Meanwhile, I have a whopping 2 50/50 win streak and lost so many characters and a C3 Mona. I become as salty as the God of Salt when we pull together because I’m as lucky as bouken da bouken.
How about you?
In my country there's 8 states and even then sometimes I forget some of them
edit: okay. I get it. you guys don't. you can stop killing my ohone now
