My 180k salary is barely enough for me. I’m actually struggling to survive with rising rent, gas, loan interest. It’s like, I can barely afford caviar with avocado toast on the daily. Why would I take spirit when I could take delta one to Cabo San Lucas? I need to start interviewing again… can someone refer me?
