GenX here, guilty. Just started a job for $15/hr. 11-years ago I started an IT job at $16/hr., and that was pretty good, more than I’d ever been paid.

And what’s nuts about that is IT jobs have barely gone up in that time.

It’s really demoralising scraping by as an IT person in a western democracy, and then realising the outsource contractors your company hired for cheaper have a much better life than you. Simply because their earnings hold up better with the cost of living where they are.
