What is your salary expectations for the job that you are currently in? I expect the pay to be above my living expenses, a career with great work/life balance, and benefits.

To be honest, for what I do day to day, I am not compensated fairly either. I do have work/life balance though because I work from home and it saves me time as I don't have to commute but my benefits suck.

I feel like we are all not being compensated fairly in our line of work. I love that you work from home to give you that work/life balance. It helped a lot… I see my friends that benefit from working from home.

I would expect to be paid with the same expectation of the work they require out of me

I usually do research on the role and company to see what I should ask for. I am definitely being way underpaid in my current role.

Yea, I usually will research what I want to be paid from a company that I want to work for first. If they don’t meet my expectations I would apply for the job. It seems like we are all underpaid.

Honestly, unless you’re corporate side, there is no wlb in retail. I barely scrape by, but I don’t generally think my pay is low; it’s higher than my previous companies with the same title. It’s just expensive AF to live where I am and in 2025 generally.

So… 3.5 year relationship came crashing in Jan due to covid depression, work burn out, lockdown etc. We have stayed in contact and recently he has come around to apologizing and considering getting back together. However he also revealed he started seeing someone casually 4 weeks ago and technically is cheating on her by meeting me for coffee and to discuss this. I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out
