Forreal though! Your whole check will go to rent and student loans

Years ago, I was working in between jobs, having DSL tech support experience most recently under my belt. I went for an interview and they asked me what my challenges at my previous job were. I said that while I had the knowledge and experience to be able to assist customers with problems, my hands were often tied by call times in an effort to shuffle through as many customers as possible. I felt limited in my role, and my knowledge (about 10+ years IT experience at that point) was being wasted.

They said, "Well, that's great! We would never monitor call times, and want you to use all your knowledge and experience to assist the end users for as long as it takes."

Oh, that sounds fantastic! What's the pay?

Minimum wage.

Um...no. Thanks.

My favorite is when they also throw in other amenities like a napping pod or the ability to participate in a quarterly survey, as if that will help you pay your bills, and then be like, "MILENNIALS LOVE THIS STUFF"
