Today, Seattle's wage is at $16 for large employers, and $15 for all other employers (unless they provide a certain level of medical benefits or employee tips, which allows them to knock it down to $12 an hour).22 Jul 2019

so employers can pay them 15 dollars as long as they don’t have to provide any benefits. Also the place seems very expensive. What’s 15 dollar minimum wage if everything is very expensive
if 15(32k a year) is the minimum that means everything else has been bumped up and gotten raises, its also a tax free state income wise so your money goes to you

Ever since Amazon Seattle has been shitty, we are planning on moving there for hubby’s job so we viewed some houses let’s just say finding a decent house for anything less than 500k is impossible, and renting is just throwing money down the drain.

The cost of living in Seattle is insane so I’m not surprised it’s still shitty to work for these big corporations.
thats why you buy property before the boom, late 90s houses were even in the 30k range, property tax isn't to much also

I have only read to page 3 and will read the rest when I get home but I have to say the math is not adding up or the data is edited. Here in Seattle, a person making less than 50K is considered low income, there’s no way an independent person can survive on less than 15K a year.

Let us stop looking down on each other and uplift one another. The Somalis here are hard working and honestly make up a fair share of professional jobs in the healthcare industry, tech, business, daycare etc.

I even know few hard working Uber drivers that make what someone that works for google makes, although it comes with working long hours and knowing the system.

With that said, no matter what u do or how much you make, as along as you are living a stress free life and the bills are paid for, keep doing you my brothers and sisters. Let’s stop pocket watching :)
