It’s maddening how expensive everything has gotten.

Managers who own their own homes have literally no idea how much it costs to live nowadays.

My employer literally can’t wrap their head around it and are upset that my coworkers “want so much money for entry level positions”.

My former coworkers keep leaving because you can’t live on what my job pays, unless you have an additional income.

People keep saying this in exit interviews and my bosses still don’t believe the COL is that high.

There is a huge mismatch between wages and COL.

What are your thoughts?
