Wages Clarification

That pay rate is crap, I was making over 650 a week when I last worked in the UK, this is my minimum weekly pay here in a Monday to Friday job. Obviously my personal details about me, such as address and SS number have been removed but the figure at the bottom is my basic wage. Each section such as Yonkers NY to Waterbury VT are one particular load and the amount next to it such as 268.72 is what is paid for that load. If you look you can see that I got paid $995.28 for just 3 loads, then the guarantee is added at the bottom. I find this pay hard to live on.

I’m not being funny but if you find that hard to live in then either your living costs are in proportion to what your wage is, in which case it’s only the same as 650 in the uk. or you need to go and get some lessons on budgeting and not living beyond your means…

^^^^ This

Also stop comparing your wage to a UK wage. It’s lots of different factors which affect your and a UK income.
