Still looking

I am still looking for a job and I am so tired of it. It is really depressing to look around on the local job pages and find that the only positions available are part-time and minimum wage. You can't provide for a family like that!

I understand completely! That is why it frustrates me so badly when people who want to argue against the minimum wage use the argument "it's not meant to support a family". If any of them actually took the time to read the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, that is exactly why it was enacted, so that people could support themselves. Beyond that, there are not many opportunities out there these days that aren't minimum wage jobs even for those that have an education.
