I recently was terminated from MSN Hotmail... I only made 43.5k working from them, and could hardly afford a 1 bedroom junior apartment (with smaller square footage then most shitty slum-quality studios)...
The sad truth behind this article is that without roommates, living in the bay can virtually be impossible.
I remember my boss yelling at me when requesting 43.5... he wanted to pay me 38k or 33.5k... I mean fuck, I could hardly even afford living with a roommate paying half the bills when we shared a 1 bedroom apartment. (one of us staying in the bedroom, the other staying in the living room.)..
It's a tragedy that managers in the valley consider this acceptable pay for doing junior, mid-level, or senior administration.
And what's the saddest thing of all is that this kind of treatment came from Hotmail. Microsoft. figures. at least i dont work for the man anymore.
