    pay me a marketing fee

    Average pay is like 50-60k [per year] for a[n average of a] 40 hour week [job], less if you’re like social media coordinator or something. It’s not like it’s crazy money.

    And why hate on people that are usually artists, writers, creatives etc spending half their life using their talents in a bland corporate way to make money to pay the bills so they can spend 10% of their life actually creating art?

    Plus, everyone’s job is easy when you reduce it to simplistic terms

    I can be a back end developer: just organize the data and show it on my screen. Don’t show me a login page, don’t ask for my preferences, don’t give me help articles, just organize the data

    I can be a firefighter: just put out the fire, don’t ride around in a big truck, don’t slide down a pole just put out the fire.

      50-60k for a week‽.

      That’s almost pretty much double the average monthly salary here.

        a year to work a full time job I meant.

        edit: I looked it up, average - 50th percentile - is actually $79k per annum. Still not crazy money for a full time job.

          Lol, I also messed up the currency conversion. Of course we don’t earn around 30k USD a month. That would be insane. We earn on average around 30-35k SEK a month which is much less.
