Does a $1/hr raise feel like it disappears immediately for anyone else? My take-home pay increased by only about $55 after deducting insurance and taxes. It’s hard to stay motivated by the increase when the actual check barely budges. Thoughts?

Yeah, a dollar sounds better than it feels. Mine got eaten up by deductions almost instantly. Kind of a letdown.

A dollar raise can feel like nothing after deductions. It’s frustrating when it doesn’t make a real difference. Keeping spirits up is tough!
