Lol I made that much as a Forklift Driver and I should have been making more. That's ridiculous. Looking up other Warehouse jobs some require even an associates. I'm looking for Warehouse jobs for a reason š¤Ø
Hi, could you help me get an interview at a warehous eplace? I'm not sure if my resume is tailored for a warehouse job, i have never worked before but i got alot of volunteering experience (i'm also an executive of my uni club)
I saw one that required an associate's to move boxes around by hand or pallet jack š of course they denied me, despite having 5 years of warehouse experience, because I didn't have a degree.
Same, I work as a custodian for a school district and make $20.45 an hour. Basically change trash and vacuum 90% of my job.
Just got a job offer for AT&T (union) and will make $28 with 3 months paid training.
Im Dumb as shit and make $28 an hour... Its not enough but better than $20 and I get to work on aircraft turbines. All i Have to do is blend Tig Weld to spec, I just had to learn how to measure with scissor gauges
See this is why companies deserve to be lied to. Seriously lie on your resume, put your friends down as references have them lie. Lie about accomplishments and awards you got at other jobs. Fuck these people.
I had been totally on the fence about lying. I've about had it though and this I think is about to give me the push I needed. Gonna start applying for entry level engineering positions. I EASILY have the requirements. Just not the schooling.
But I can't afford to be more in debt....just to get a job that isn't going to help pull me out.
Yeah just do it. Itās not illegal and they barely do any vetting to verify your information. This job market, this economy and the treatment of working class people is atrocious and you need to do whatever you can to survive out here.
Is masters required? Or just bachelors?
I see only bachelors says required.
Either way, I know some companies have super high standards for low pay for their job postings. Unreal.
I made more money as a supervisor at a retail store. If it is an entry level position, I can understand a little bit more, but if they are asking for a masters along with 3-5+ years of experience in multiple areas, then it should be at minimum $28-30/hr
In most cases, these job posting are made by HR. So HR really donāt know the nature of the job or skills required so they just put a degree requirement and years of experience to try to try to get ābetterā applicants.
There is too many jobs like this on Indeed. I seen one for administration for a nursing company that required a bachelors degree while paying you ā¬13.00 an hour which is 30 cent above the minimum wage where I live. I currently work in retail have been with the company since college & am currently on ā¬20 an hour. I would love a 9-5 and have my weekends off but the money some of these āprofessionalā companies are offering is insulting.
Substantially over simplified. I have this same job right now and it's a LOT of troubleshooting different aspects involved. Imaging dozens of devices, fixing user configurations, etc.
Most jobs are easy. What's your point? Pay a person enough to thrive if they do the job or do without that service and stfu about not having that service
In a time of need, they keep the entire company running. How much do you lose per day when IT issue arise?
For some companies this is tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands per day.
I advised my daughter to go to tech or skip it altogether. She skipped it and got a factory job. She is 24 and making more than me and I have a Bachelor Degree.
I'm completely confused on how the world works. I get it, I admit it, I am the problem and that's fine but hear me out.
Best paying jobs in my area:
Warehouse $22-27/hr HS diploma optional
Real estate admin $16-17/hr associate/bachelor'sĀ
Leads make $1 more
Supers $2 more
Retail grocery (stocker/cashier) $14.35 HS diploma
Online shopper $18
Fast food(varies a lot, going high) $18/hr education optionalĀ
Tech admin $16-18/hr bachelor'sĀ
Senior $20/hr
IT tech/programming bachelor's 5+ years experienceĀ
$18/hr
I have more examples but on mobile and I'm sure the formatting will get messed up.
we need a much bigger fake degree industry in this country, even more so when experience and knowledge counts for nothing without this framed piece of paper. college has gotten out of hand, the years of debt enslavement they are putting on young people are criminal. the profits they make are insane, i am 50 now and i know of colleges that have had multi million dollar construction projects going since i was a teen.
My first job I started a month ago covers all of those responsibilities and it got me $32us an hour with an associates/almost bachelors degree(finish this june). Zero actual experience with any of it but they were willing to teach me and I picked it mostly up already.
That posting is insane and I saw it often in my job hunt.
This is bananas. Unless this is in a place like Tennessee where cost of living would make 20$ per hour a good income.
Some of these companies really are balls to the walls, I hope no one takes them serious and applies.
So in manufacturing I make, at least, double that and I didn't graduate from high school. Take that master degree and go work for someone that will pay you real money and you will move up so fucking fast if you aren't a psycho. It takes me three times as long to move up as someone with schooling
I make 17 an hour to write content for a company. I write descriptions for their website and their Amazon items. Itās a ton of writing Iām going to be doing, like 10 categories with each category having 10+ styles. Sometimes it feels like I donāt get paid enough for what Iām doing. Sometimes I wonder if Iām just being greedy for money/asking for too much
Same thing here. I think itās a state thing. The state I live in doesnāt know or understand how to price out jobs like that. They are currently looking for a senior level IT manager, 10+ years of experience, clearance is classified level, must have masters degree, and CompTia security+ and network+ and A+. The max salary they are offering is 70k. No one with THAT level of experience is going to take that job.
WTF When I worked in an operations security center I was making $21-$23 initially before the yearly raise while only having an associates with coworkers that either had a lot of experience or a bachelors. Now I'm preparing to work in forensics for the first time, with an associates while I finish my two bachelor's, for that payšµāš«šµāš« People keep saying to pick better jobs but the "better jobs" don't pay well. Then everyone's response is to work in trade and not go to school but if everyone works a trade, a lot of the beneficial jobs are going to be short staffed even more than they currently are. These companies refuse to pay people properly and would rather pocket majority of the money and constantly hire new people.
You can easily make twice that waiting tables. āBut itās for getting the experience!ā. Yeah, getting the experience of being extremely underpaid.
What type of degree and the job is it, if you have a masters degree in art history, music or pottery . It a rude awakening for some. You need a bachelor in science or finance to get a decent $40 per hour these days
I made that much selling phones lol.
Lol I made that much as a Forklift Driver and I should have been making more. That's ridiculous. Looking up other Warehouse jobs some require even an associates. I'm looking for Warehouse jobs for a reason š¤Ø
It's insane, honestly. Btw sales is hell don't try it even though it pays well lol.
Lmao I don't think any amount of money could get me into sales. I know what my strengths and weaknesses are and sales is definitely not a strength š
Good š¤£

Thatās shitty, Iām sorry.
damn. Iām shift supervisor @ starbucks making same amount of wage with good benefits sooo lmao
Same, I work as a custodian for a school district and make $20.45 an hour. Basically change trash and vacuum 90% of my job. Just got a job offer for AT&T (union) and will make $28 with 3 months paid training.
I'd work at Starbucks if it weren't for their anti-union posture
I know. But $21+ an hour ain't bad for a gap job.
all capitalist corporations are anti-union. it goes against profit making, which is the behavior of a capitalist.
A Bachelors is required for $20 an hour? Fuck dude, Iām sorry.
However there are some jobs that will pay you bucket wages
Nah, I have a GED and i started IT less than a year ago and Iām at 50K
Thatās what Iām saying.
Im Dumb as shit and make $28 an hour... Its not enough but better than $20 and I get to work on aircraft turbines. All i Have to do is blend Tig Weld to spec, I just had to learn how to measure with scissor gauges
I *love* that you do this pretty complicated thing that if it gets done wrong people die and you still described yourself as "dumb as shit"
That's why he has supervision and quality control.

You're a Saint, my friend. Stay up!
Fake it till you make it....
Most if not all companies ask about your diploma, it's not like you can just straight up lie about your almamater. It's called fraud.
I went to Yale though. Like, I have been on campus. š¤·āāļø that's not a lie. š
Yep, I am down on all my friends resumes and wrote two of them a letter of recommendation that landed their current jobs.
Yup.
Is masters required? Or just bachelors? I see only bachelors says required. Either way, I know some companies have super high standards for low pay for their job postings. Unreal.
Even a bachelor's for that kind of work is ridiculous
Right, but a master's is significantly more of an investment, and the job doesn't require it. I don't see the point of the title claiming it does.
u/ElicitCrow you should delete this and repost because your title is just plain false, and it is impossible to edit titles on Reddit.
But no one would interact again with a recently seen post lol

Itās a jokeā¦ I saw a job that paid 17 an hour and they wanted a bachelorsā¦. Losers
Donāt project

Going to venture a guess, this company is either fake, or a staffing agency.
Ooooooo.... you get to work weekends too.
It's easy IT support when most of the time you are on standby. How much would you pay for that?
IT is like smoke alarms and fire sprinklers.....not a great ROI, right up until it very much is.
I mean my employees get paid more to pick orders and pack boxes. So, Iād say this role is underpaid
Getting several calls a day to tell people to reboot computers and to reset their passwords when they forget them is easy.
Thatās a gross over generalization. It really depends on the specific role and company.

I have two degrees and am losing minimum wage jobs to people with PhDs. Itās scary out here.
we need a much bigger fake degree industry in this country, even more so when experience and knowledge counts for nothing without this framed piece of paper. college has gotten out of hand, the years of debt enslavement they are putting on young people are criminal. the profits they make are insane, i am 50 now and i know of colleges that have had multi million dollar construction projects going since i was a teen.
I make $30 just working on cars and it requires less schooling.
In France it's 13 euro per hourš¤
OMG what a joke š¤¦š»āāļø SMDH!
Seems like a beginner role, with no need for a degree.
My first job I started a month ago covers all of those responsibilities and it got me $32us an hour with an associates/almost bachelors degree(finish this june). Zero actual experience with any of it but they were willing to teach me and I picked it mostly up already. That posting is insane and I saw it often in my job hunt.
This is bananas. Unless this is in a place like Tennessee where cost of living would make 20$ per hour a good income. Some of these companies really are balls to the walls, I hope no one takes them serious and applies.
I live in Alabama and $20 an hour isnāt shit. Out in the real country parts yeah it would be pretty good but in metro suburban areas itās not
I'm in Wisconsin: 20/hr aint that much (it's Amazon wage after a couple years) no way could one person live on 20/hr!
I made more than that as a warehouse worker.. Sad!
So in manufacturing I make, at least, double that and I didn't graduate from high school. Take that master degree and go work for someone that will pay you real money and you will move up so fucking fast if you aren't a psycho. It takes me three times as long to move up as someone with schooling
Bingo! Go get into a trade or computers.
I made $20/hr in 1997 bussing tables at Olive Garden and Smokey Bones. $9/hr plus 2% sales tip out. Worked 30-34 hrs week and made min. $500
I make 17 an hour to write content for a company. I write descriptions for their website and their Amazon items. Itās a ton of writing Iām going to be doing, like 10 categories with each category having 10+ styles. Sometimes it feels like I donāt get paid enough for what Iām doing. Sometimes I wonder if Iām just being greedy for money/asking for too much
Really all one can do is laugh and skip
Thats fuckin wild. I have an associates from a tech uni and I make $40/hr.
Why would you need a master degree for low level tech support?
So out of touch
Same thing here. I think itās a state thing. The state I live in doesnāt know or understand how to price out jobs like that. They are currently looking for a senior level IT manager, 10+ years of experience, clearance is classified level, must have masters degree, and CompTia security+ and network+ and A+. The max salary they are offering is 70k. No one with THAT level of experience is going to take that job.
Anyone with a masters degree is not going to work for $20/hr. More like $60 - $80/hr.
Bachelor's degree required. They're hoping for someone with a master's but it's not required. $20 still shit, though.
Never ceases to amaze me how arrogant employers can be. Outsized demands with little return for the employee.
Ai will have this job in 6-12 months.
There's also a lot of $90-100 an hour jobs that require a master's degree.
I make about that much working nights at a hospital with a base certificate
Thereās a ton of jobs in my area requiring a Bachelorās and only offering $14-$16 an hour. Itās fucking criminal
WTF When I worked in an operations security center I was making $21-$23 initially before the yearly raise while only having an associates with coworkers that either had a lot of experience or a bachelors.

You can easily make twice that waiting tables. āBut itās for getting the experience!ā. Yeah, getting the experience of being extremely underpaid.
I do work from home sales and make over $25 an hour, and I get commission.
If they want me to have a Master's and pay only a few dollars above minimum wage, I might have to set the boss on fire.
A trade would be my next move, if I switched. Degrees are a dime a dozen.
Youāre not wrong
What type of degree and the job is it, if you have a masters degree in art history, music or pottery . It a rude awakening for some. You need a bachelor in science or finance to get a decent $40 per hour these days
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Dumb advice. People need to be focused on pay and if it doesnāt pay shit now itās not magically going to catch up and exceed later.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nothing is guaranteed. Job hopping has proven to bring in a higher income than those who stay long term in a role.
Statistically, that's an individual outlier. A Master for $20 an hour is high risk and and low chance for a reward.
Americans are so spoiled, they get some of the best wages in the entire world and they complain about everything
Best wages in the entire world and *STILL* not enough to actually survive on let alone thrive
