Yeah its like.....so you're going to charge me 400k for my education and $1200 for rent, but pay me $10/hr for a job I need a degree for? Sheesh.
If you want me at 100% productivity for 40 hours a week, stop having me work 2 jobs and 70 hours to do it. Period. Almost half my working age works more than 90% of the generation behind me. Its true!!! GenX people RARELY worked a 50, and I've worked more 60s than my parents and grandparents combined. Am I tired and unproductive sometimes? fluff yes I am.
But 1) I love what I do, 2) I'm really fluffin good at it, 3) I have to clean up fluff and puke and 4) everyone in the customer service industry takes hell for a living. I HAVE MANAGED business for 40k and in 1979 that was the inflation equivalent of minimum wage. I could still barely pay for my apartment. I couldn't have worked that job if I had kids. Period.
