Im a software engineer earning less than half than what that electrician makes. Constantly being told that I am privileged is chipping away at my mental health little by little.
- ryan93 7y agoNo software engineer in the US makes half of 55k
- stuntkite 7y agoThat's not true at all. There are plenty of folks grinding out wordpress plugins or marketing gizmos for half that. When I was doing those things it took me years to crack $55k. As I got that stability I started looking at skills that were more in demand and less wasteful of my cognitive surplus.
