We've all been there, thinking we have the worst lives ever. Then we look behind and see all these people who have worse lives than us. That happened to me yesterday. I was really tired at work yesterday because it was so busy, and I had too many deadlines to make. I've always thought I'm not getting paid enough doing what I'm doing. Then we received our paychecks at the end of the day (it's weekly payroll). And co-worker M showed me her paycheck which was a measly $268 O_o;;;;; Mine was more than twice as much!! And I just got a raise too. I know that our job descriptions are different. I do more important work such as customer service, desktop publishing, managing, print production, etc etc. And she does production, the actual labor, such as collating, binding, or just cleaning the store. but still, she works hard. She puts a lot of overtime, because she has 2 kids to support in peru. Yes, she's from peru, doesn't speak english well, and I'm not even sure about her status here in the US. But still, I feel so bad for her T_T
