[Paracelsus]

I couldn't read this. Seriously. Not because of disgust, but because the sentences are giving me headaches. If I had five cents for every parenthesis she used I think I'd have enough money to pay her fucking rent for a week. This clown is in her mid-twenties, with an English Literature degree, and can't compose a sentence.

The only two bits that drew my eye:

Quote:

Another wrote on those neat whiteboards we’ve got on every floor begging for help because he was bound to be homeless in two weeks. Fortunately, someone helped him out. At least, I think they did. I actually haven’t seen him in the past few months. Do you think he’s okay?

I didn't see her offering to help out this guy, or help any of her fellow crucifixees. And yet:

Quote:

Originally, I suggested that Eat24/Yelp employees volunteer at local soup kitchens and food banks to give back to our Bay Area community (I see on your twitter that you care deeply about the homeless epidemic in our city) while also helping the different departments meet and mingle. Maybe instead, you can help set up something to allow Eat24/Yelp employees to get food from local food banks and soup kitchens? I’m pretty proficient at rice, but some hot soup would sure make up for not being able to afford to use my heater.

Standard leftie: demands companies "do something" about the homeless epidemic, but won't lift a fucking finger to help real human beings right next to her at the job.

Women aren't meant to be on their own like that, managing every aspect of their own lives.

That's why their parents arranged them to be married off at a young age. Even if you were poor, the young couple could take care of eachother to some extent. These single women are going to get a brutal lesson, especially when they cross 30. The social conventions were designed to protect women once they age, who will be especially fucked since they scoffed at the idea of marriage and being a wife. Now they can face the cold world on their own.

Yikes.

Your college tuition would have been better spent on a gym membership, makeup, hair product, bond hair dye, learning how to cook and give a good blowjob.

Then you'd have no paying job, but you'd also have no bills because you were wifed up by some HB Visa IRT on a san francisco dev team.

[Nonpareil]

- '#goals'?, how about '#youreadipshit'?
- I knew this was written by a chick almost instantly because she said 'I don't want to be a cliche...', no man gives two shits about being a cliche as long as it pays the bills (maybe pajama boy millennial faggots do?). Should have got her teaching certificate.
- Starting in customer service should qualify you for media...someday if you work hard and are lucky. You know what doesn't qualify you for media? The way you take five sentences to say what I can say in two (having in the past worked in media - I have some idea of what I'm talking about).
- You can't afford to eat anything other than rice? It's slimming, and of course there's always the world's oldest profession...
- 80% of your salary goes to rent...I REPEAT...80% of this basic chick's salary is rent, to further drive home how sheer idiocy of this...



- Seriously - find a few friends, rent something like this and your rent has been cut in less than half...I mean sure, it's a little far (about 50 minutes with traffic)...but people everywhere do that shit every day.
- There are easy and creative ways to steal food from the company fridge - you lack imagination and guile.
- Also, the Bay area has a climate well-adapted to growing your own vegetables...it's very inexpensive.
- She severely underestimates the importance of benefits - especially in America.
- Go to Starbucks, buy a water for like $2 and use their wifi instead of having to pay for it.
- 'But maybe I could find someone on Craigslist who won’t mind all of that because they’ll look at the dark circles under my eyes and realize I need the cash more than they do.' - the only people who give money to women without receiving anything in return are your thirsty, emasculated male cohorts. I might be compelled to give you $50 *sees pic* $25 if you blow me and swallow and I feel sorry enough for you that day...
- You complain and complain about being underpaid for your work, your solution is volunteer work...Again...



- $24,000 extra yearly in San Francisco? Okay - you're now paying 55% of your earnings on rent and not 80%, which is nice, but you'll want to move. It's not much...
- A Bearing of Basic Bitch Behavior #273 - When you do shit like put off oil changes and let your car sit doing nothing because you can't afford it, on the day when it does break down (and it will)...be prepared to fork over at least two G's. An oil change is like $35, putting a spare tire on is promising some beta a dinner date after which you won't even need to put out if you don't want to - you can always afford it.
- You were fired for this diatribe. Remember next time you do this kids - THE INTERNET IS FOREVER!

San Francisco is a place I'd fuck my own mother before choosing to live in - BUT - it's the single most important technology hub on the planet. SF rewards innovators, the best and the brightest. If you're average, you're just more grist for the mill there.

She could have at least had a little extra spending cash if she lived in a less glamorous place like Vegas or Denver.

[Cobra]

Not to mention she burns all bridges and sets them ablaze by sending an "open" letter to "Mr. CEO." Bad move.

Best chance she has is to move to another city at this point. Maybe this time with some more information. Something tells me, that it's a lost cause.

[LeeEnfield303]

Yick, what a dog. She looks like Sarah Gilbert's little sister.

The rest is typical Millennial self-obsessed gibberish.

[la bodhisattva]

The freak show that populates the area notwithstanding, I don't understand the appeal of living in the SFO area.

[eatthishomie]

Not to mention that she thinks an English degree and a dead-end customer service job is an entry into working in media.

Go intern at a production house and work your way up from there - THAT'S how you break into media, from someone who's done it.

[Thrill Jackson]

As I spend the 6th hour of my day studying my ass off for an exam, I come across this shit. Thank god I major in Accounting and actually plan out my life.

[Captainstabbin]

An English major, who doesn't understand or follow the rules of grammar in a formal letter, complains that she can't afford food - plot twist, she's not thin.

[Speculation]

I couldn't get through it. Both for the content and the writing 'style'.

What little I gleaned just came across as 'Waah, life is hard. I'm a woman. Give me free stuff.'

[kosko]

You can survive off min. wage if you have no dependants and your student debt is not crushing. A small box studio can cost you $600, and renting a room can be cheaper. You can eat rice, frozen veggies, eggs, and tuna each day. If you are poor and pay more than 60-70% of your wages on rent your stupid. There is always a cheaper option. The golden rule when your broke is to never let rent be more than one pay check (which eliminates being short for rent). Full time min wage will at least get $500 bucks in your pocket each pay day, that can find you some type of shelter. No excuses. I've heard of people renting closets and coaches out of desperation.

You can find a new job in 2 weeks if your serious. Instability should not last more than 2 months. It is always transition phases that burn you (new expenses from a new place/job, etc), never the day to day grind. No excuses.

At my worst days when I was flat broke my living expenses and food were capped at $800 a month. I was still eating nice homemade meals of chicken legs, rice, roasted veggies and could afford a few beers to get the edge off a shitty work day.

This girl is dumb.

Why isn't she freelancing? You can make easy money copy editting for students, or doing Fiver/Elance. She can sell her damn car. Pets are expensive, get rid of the cat.
Stop buying fufu cosmetic shit...who your broke ass trying to look good for?...

[eatthishomie]

Not to mention if she did RFL she'd be saving hella money on food. RFL gonna cut my grocery bill in half for March easily.

I stopped reading after this:

Quote:

I left college, having majored in English literature, with a dream to work in media.

[Irenicus]

I regret reading the whole text... .

I want 3 minutes of my life back.

[eradicator]

I want to say this isn't real and that it's some sort of satire, but sadly it probably is very real.

Not only is this real, but one million variations of her are planning to vote for Bernie.

[TornadoByProxy]

Talia, did it ever occur to you that the CEO has as much contempt for you as you have for your fellow customer service reps? You aren't better than anyone. You are exactly like the people you worked with, who you thought you were so much better than.

[Suits]

Hilariously, the job she got fired from is probably mainly staffed by people who graduated high school and nothing more.

[DJ-Matt]

What a fucking whiner. While going to college in the bay area studying STEM, I worked master control at a cheapskate TV station and I still made $14 an hour. Oh yeah and I was 20 years old at the time too, by the time I was her age I made damn near $50k a year living in the middle of nowhere, not SF. Her life plan was to be a worthless typist in a world where journalism is a dead end job?

Gross, based on those photo angles, SIF. WNB.

[Hannibal]

What a retard. She's the living embodiment of Nickel and Dimed, the shittiest book I was ever forced to read by my college education.



I'll spoil the book for you. An privileged, upper class white bitch tries to see how far she can get living on minimum wage and fails miserably, then writes a book about why minimum wage should be a living wage.


You know what I'd do if the cost of living was too high? I'd fucking move. Apparently this bitch failed third grade math.

If she had some brains in that airheaded skull of hers, she could figure out how to get by on minimum wage. She'd also get paid more. Life's funny like that.

[El Chinito loco]

I swear people are completely fucking retarded these days.

This entitled bitch has 3-4 different ways for people to send her money and some idiot started a gofundme and it was at around $1500 or so.

People will throw money at any stupid sob story.

[Hyperion85]

50/50 odds of her eventually filing a sexual harassment lawsuit against her former employer when she runs out of "pity-me"' money.

She talks about not having 6 dollars for a bus ticket but i wonder if the thought of downgrading her phone plan to a cheaper one or maybe not having starbucks 2X a day ever entered her mind. Oh wait she's a millennial, nevermind...

[Cronus]

This is pretty much every girl on Tinder. Gets all of her information by reading titles on Buzzfeed and thinks she's entitled to the rewards hard work brings. They're everywhere. These empty women are copy-pasted more than a pornhub url.

[Easy_C]

There's another angle to this to.

Notice how it's always companies that lefties love which seem to be caught treating their employees like dogshit?
