>make $16/hr at boring programming job (after tax)
>cheapest health insuranc available is $55 a day
>already spending $6/day for dental
>gives me a warning that i will possibly be fined if i don't get this $55 a day shit i wouldnt use
Wat the heck. I aint payin for that
Why so expensive
>55 a day
You spend 1500$ a month on insurance?
go be a lying sack of shit somewhere else
No i dont. That was the health insurance offered by my employer [a recruiting agency]
I declined. I only got the dental which is $7 a day
>he got scammed by a recruiting agency
live and learn
Are you just retarded and confusing days with months?
OR
Are you just retarded and got scammed by this "agency"?
Are you saying $7 a day is too much for dental?
I didnt decide to pay the $55 . I opted out. So no scam at all, i just don't have health insurance. Which is OK because i don't have any use for it lol
Just wondering why it is so god damn expensive. Who the fuck pays for that besides cancer patients?
>he doesn't know his hour is sold back @$60+/h
most probably 80$ desu
I get paid $19/hr which is 16 after tax. I am just a javascript programmer so i cant be any more than 25/hr
>Are you saying $7 a day is too much for dental?
YES. You are being ripped off.
My employers insurance is way lower than that. The cheapest tier medical is $6/mo. Dental is pennies a day.
Dude you have no idea! Let me tell you a story
>Be senior fullstack dev
>Need to work asap because reasons
>Apply for a front end dev via recruiting agency
>Ace interview
>Guy asks me, if I can take on more than JS
>I reply yea but not with what they offer
>Guy looks very confused
>"But we already pay you 75$/h"
>Not allowed to speak money by contract but fuck em
>I was only offer 39 sir
>Guy says ok we have a big problem
That's how I got to know the game
Ok well I haven't paid yet so i'll just cancel
in the USA many programming jobs are exclusively filled through agencies.
So the recruiter is keeping the difference, and the company you work for isn’t aware, and you get payed through the recruiter?
It's the same game here in Toronto, where most hiring companies are US based relocating to Canada for lower costs. 90% of my employers have been SF based start-ups.
Yup that's the game
I have got to get in on this racket.
My insurance costs 1100$ a month you fag, it’s the same as my rent.
Now if you really want to get into this racket, you need to get into the IT for financials (banks, insurance) where the final bill is between $120/h to $180/h.
You think you get a good deal with your 110K yearly where in reality you generate more than 1/4 of a million.
39 an hour is insane, to me that is so high
I have 5 yr work experience in web dev and only make $19 which is $16/hr after taxes
It's called "overhead"
I make £7.85 ($9.99) / hour after tax, which I believe is the average wage
don't tell me about plight because you niggers don't know shit

>taxed on every god damn thing
