How the fuck did you obtain 25k if you think 17/h is a good paying job, I'm not sure if I'm impressed or just baffled by how insanely low your cost of living is, that wouldnt even pay rent for a studio here 😅

Yea not to shit on his parade, but his good paying job is $1 more than I was paid an hour 20 years ago right out of college in a job.  It wasn't horrible,  not minimum wage, but that was the bottom.  I shutter to think how far $17 would take you today with cost of living and inflation being what it is.  There are people worse off than you for sure, but don't be satisfied at $17/hr.  Take the job and keep looking for better opportunities because they are out there.
