minus-squareminibyte@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up12arrow-down7·7 months agoMr Fain, I’m a UAW member with a 2.5% 401k match. I’m getting a .75 cent raise in July that puts me at $12 an hour. Please explain to me more about how I’m getting screwed.
minus-squarestoly@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up27·7 months agoI’m confused–do you think that $12/hour is a livable wage? It should be more like $25 - $30.
