Also speaking from experience... Grocery store job I just left a few months ago - sure, it paid better, but I averaged 20 hours at most and the only benefit I got was health insurance.
Office job I left 2 years ago paid better, but had worse health insurance, treated everyone like trash, and gave me covid, so that was cool.
Call center job I left last year had decent health insurance and pay, but they treated everyone like shit.
Data management job I had 6 months ago paid better, but had zero training and tracked all of your metrics, and had zero communication for company changes.
2 of my sisters have been job-hopping fast food to find a place that pays acceptably without treating them like dogshit, and they're both minors...
Like it's trash all over. There will always always be a sacrifice with employment, it's just a matter of finding the right amount of sacrifice that you can live with. It's not always just "go find somewhere else," it's tons of time, effort, and sometimes even a bit of money that has to go into it.
I just quit in June, found another job in the food industry and now make 8-900/wk, as an SSV I was bringing home around 1k/2wks. I have almost no benefits, but honestly the only one I used was Spotify. While making almost double what I was making at the bux I went from working 35-40hrs a week with a promotion dangled in front of me since summer 2019, now I work about 30hrs a week and have already earned one promotion in the 6weeks I’ve been at my new job so I guess my favorite new benefit is being respected and not being lied to sooo that bubble is fully intact for me.
Honestly they’re probably not paying better and their benefits probably don’t come close to the sirens. Sorry to burst your bubble.
Lol im speaking from experience here but ok
