Worried that I might have fucked up, dear readers
Edit
Okay so here's the situation
Wage starts at 20/hr. Caps at 42/hr, interviewer said "Most people hit cap in six years and you get a pay increase every six months"
I interpreted this to mean that I would receive a bump of 22/12 every six months, or $1.83. This is not the case.
It's 0.50/6 months, and then at six years you get a final MASSIVE raise.
So it'll be several years before I achieve the wage I just left again. And several more to cap.
It's not gonna be one lean year, but three. More like five, with how costs are soaring.
I'm going to have to leverage the paid education benefits IMMEDIATELY to offset the loss in wages. So I have school applications to submit and trainings to arrange. I am gonna make this company pay my way.
