LOL - if you make twice as much as any of your friends... and you do this by driving a fucking forklift, you have some majorly poor friends.
ROFL.

My friends are all 19/20/21 and some are still in school (college).
I only make more than them because I got lucky and landed a $16/hr job.

I eat sleep and shit my job. I also just signed a check to pay our guy who drives a forklift. I beat you all.

Granted it has been a long time since I've punched a time clock or thought about pay in terms of per hour, but 16/hr isn't that bad is it?

It's not awful, I mean, Burger Flipper is down around $7. Works out to about 33k a year or so, given 40 hour work weeks. By way of further comparison, however, a reasonably experienced (6 years or so) Network Engineer goes at about $53/hr.

Fuck getting married. I mean, fuck divorce. I am going to grow old alone and have a hundred cats who shall protect me from sleepwalkers.

I had a VahShir rogue named Sleepwalkers whom I deleted because she sucked. I wish I hadn't! But oh well.

16/hr is pretty good actually..at least here. especially for someone his age. I have a friend who's still in college, 23 years old, and makes that much at his job. He's considered "lucky" by all of his other college friends, but of course they work at music stores or bars.
Of course, finawin lives up nawth, so the value of that dollar may not be worth what it is here...and New Bedford is kind of slummy.

Honestly, he makes more money than me. I work at a gym and am still in college, I make about $9/hour

Wage is only half the equation. Cost of living is the other half. Someone making 16/hr here isn't doing bad. No one is making 53/hr for anything. Of course, the average 3 bedroom home is going for $130,000, property taxes are quite affordable. And forklift operators, that is, material handlers, make 11-13 on average. He's also making more or on par than most people I know with bachelor's. Of course they're all 1-5 years out and have more earning power down the road, but there's something to be said for having a job where you know your responsibilities and have the peace of mind of doing your job and going home, and that's that.

$16/hr here is pretty good. Houses run for 100ish for a decent sized, nice neighborhood.
But, it *is* North, as Ashly said, so I dont know what that would equal there.
