@cassandra17lina Cheers Cassandra. I'm delighted you liked it.
I remember being young and testing my boundaries. Sometimes things went fine, and then there were the other times. This story is inspired by one of the latter

@corlin @_Psyber @MLClark @JerichoTaskerDeaux @Alt_Human @disk4mat great story, I loved it
@corlin @LincolnMitchell I just did a bit of research and a minimum federal wage job gives a person $1300 a month, the cheapest studio apartment for one I could find in SanFran was $950 unfurnished, which means it's impossible to have any standard of life at that wage level.
Low minimum wages fuel bigger employers. People have to work longer to survive. It's nearly endentured servitude but hidden under the promise of hard work means riches! Not true for the majority so it's blatantly unfair.
@LincolnMitchell that is a very good piece. I'm Irish and have not been to the states. Can I ask, what is the minimum wage in the US? And in comparison who much is a small apartment in an average part of San Francisco cost?
@PaganMother good tale 😊
@Knitpurrl @CoSoTips cheers for the welcome and the guide, it's very informative. I moved here to find actual people because Twitter is ruined with adds bots and bile. Ps. I love animals too.
@FireMonkey thank you so much for taking the time to give it a read. I'm always finding things to change and if love to know your thoughts. I love writing them and having someone read one of my stories is the greatest complement.
@JerichoTaskerDeaux cheers buddy 😊
@Beanc so nice to be here.
@Netherbury thanks so much I'm looking forward to getting to know my way around.
@corlin thank you so much for the welcome. No bullshit sounds like such a welcome change 😆
Hi everyone, this is my first time posting so nice to meet you all. I thought I would share a short story with you to see what you thought. https://squidmcfinnigan.blogspot.com/2015/11/keeping-up-with-joneses.html
