I am going to make a long story short I told them I was quiting cause I got a job offer of $6.00 an hour instead of $5.15 I was making there. Next thing I know they offer me $7.00 an hour to stay so what the hell in less then 4 weeks I get a raise SWEET!!

so about $160.00 per week after Taxes :D :ylsuper

Hey we scored a $.55 cost of living raise up here. No wonder, housing costs have skyrocketted in the last year. Median home cost: $200k, in a county where an overwhelming majority live below the poverty level...?

Where you work? I make $3/hr it sucks but then I get TIPS usually end up at $8/hr. Sometimes I make $5/hr soemtime $20/hr just depends on the group of people. Love it when the guy in Viper pulls up and stiffs me(actually happened) then a car that can barely make to the hotel gives me $5.

My work is like super happy fun time.

I'm a network engineer. Basically, I tool around on a computer all day, fix things when they break (rarely), then go home and work on my car :)

Well.....

I work for Bellsouth and the time to update the union contract is this weekend. This means a few things. I might have to strike, and not get paid. But it might also mean an instant pay raise (up a few bucks from 18 dollars), and a bonus. Hopefully I will post something good soon.

see thats the problem your lucky. You got to work on networks and servers. I got stuck with the grunt work. All i do is fool around with computers. I am looking at getting some certs.But i don't even know if it would be worth it due to my lack of knowledge with servers.
