There are so many possible ways for a human being to enjoy there life . Different people tick over in different ways . Some people need to jump out of areoplanes at crazy heights opening there parachutes at the last minute , and some people just like to walk through a vineyard holding hands . But what actually is there to enjoy nower days about everyday life . There's bills , that seem to increase . There's nbo job satisfaction for most people anymore because employers are squezzing employees like a sponge , getting all the work they can for a measley wage at the end of the week . What can people do to enjoy life ? The people at the bottom of the food chain are the ones who keep the system running whilst the people at the top live the high life .....let me ask you this . What would happen if one day people at the bottom got fed up and created an alliance and just stopped . The system would come grinding to a halt , because the world runs on minimum wage .

I honestly do not enjoy the minimum wage lifestyle. It is too hard to do anything when you don't have enough money to do anything. Now, I understand that it is possible to do things without having money, but there are too many things that require money. But for the most part, everything requires some money. Besides, even if you are making some money, because of how companies are doing people these days, you never have enough time off to get some rest, let alone any personal activity. My last job did this with my boss always taking about her trips or her lavish lifestyle, and I am trying to figure out which bill can I skip, food, electricity, or rent. Unfortunately, the world has always ran on slave or low pay labor, the expendable class of people.

It's all in the attitude. Some people are very glad to have a minimum wage job because it allows them to have a place to call home, a few clothes and food to eat without being taken care of by the government. Sure, there are those in high places. Without wealth, the system would grind to a halt, too! Where does the money come from?

Wow. That's quite a speech. Anyway, I'm not contented with my minimum wage life. I don't know how we can improve our minimum wage life. I think we should do something to be the ones on top.

I know that I would never be able to enjoy a job which paid minimum wage because I like to give the best life possible to my family, and there is just no way that I would be able to do this if I happened to be in a job that was at minimum wage. At the moment, I work full time and earn double minimum wage and even this is something that I struggle with once I've paid all of my bills. I could not be on minimum wage because of the house that I live in, and I wouldn't be able to pay my mortgage if I lost any of the money that I am getting at the moment.
