Officer on a container ship work about 6 months out of the year and make about 120k. For the most part my job is looking out a window at some waves.

Teacher in Zimbabwe – $150USD Per Month

Edit – Thank you guys so much for the messages and awards . Feels great to be appreciated . $150 is not enough in Zimbabwe. We’re just living by day by day like birds . Political and Economic situation is very bad .

I’m a farmer. My earnings are flirting with the breadline, but I have very little bills and my life is overall very happy and fulfilling

I work at a recycling plant, I get $35 an hour to stand at a conveyer belt picking out glass

Edit: Should have stated when I wrote the comment that I live in Australia, so that would be $25 usd roughly.

While I have people’s attention I would like to use this platform to ask people to please be mindful of what goes into your recycling bins. Diapers, food and plastic wrappers do not belong in the recycling bin.

I work at a recycling plant as a chemist. I analyze our incoming and outgoing material for base and precious metals content.

I am one of 2 people in the lab and am effectively in charge as it’s no secret the lab manager is looking for a new job and is absent many days.

I get paid $20/hr

I am a paraprofessional in an elementary school. I spend most of my time in a self contained Kindergarten – 5th grade classroom of mostly “non verbal” students with autism. (Occasionally I float to other classrooms) I make around 20k a year. I love my job, but the pay is insulting.

Emt 15/hr

Edit: u guys need to realize, I’m on the high end. 15/hr is starting wage here and that’s freaking nuts. I seriously met a guy who worked 20+ years as an advanced EMT over in Tennessee and he was legit making 10.50 an hour. The dude was 48 on, 24 off.

Actually y’all think I’m doing rough? Check out wildland firefighters haha

I’m a bum and get $120 a week donating plasma, but plot twist I have an interview at the plasma place tomorrow

Edit: I want to thank everyone for the outpouring support in the comments. I’m doing my best to respond to everyone. It’s good to know there’s nice people out there.

Socialists and billionaires in presidential politics. Open Source, Christopher Lydon

The New Red Scare
“The winter round of the presidential race goes to Bernie Sanders, not so much for winning the most votes from Democrats as for coining the key word, the big theme for 2020, which is: billionaires! Not just the billionaires on the ballot and billionaires backstage, it’s billionaire-ism coming to be the argument of this election in a country at odds more and more about money. We’re used to anger, right and left, but suddenly there’s alarm in the air – at MSNBC, the Democrats’ TV network, the bold march of Bernie’s anti-billionaire army reminded Hardball‘s Chris Matthews of the Fall of France to Hitler in 1940. It’s scary, and there’s a pick of scarecrows in this race: the Plutocrat; the Democratic Socialist, and the President.

This was wake-up week among the Democrats nominating a presidential candidate. Some woke up cheering that Bernie Sanders looks like the choice of the people. Some woke up screaming in horror that the rebellion against the Clinton era is real, that their party has been dying for four years, that the end is near. The sound of battle has gone raw, with survival at stake, not just egos.”
