I enjoyed and understood both of these stories simultaneously...
Before I came to school, 3 of my friends and I lived in an apt. for a year. And... it sucked.
My girlfriend and I were both waitresses, while our boyfriends were working out of town each week. As a waitress in a restaruant/bar, I was aware of the set up of it and the people that came in. Everything/Everyone was ultimately labled, and certain connections were made between them.Also, when bills were due each month, and you had to go grocery shopping every week, plus gas, etc --> it all added up! By the end of each paycheck, we had $0 to our name to have fun with. We were living paycheck to paycheck just to be able to live.
Sooo... that's when I made the decision to come BACK to school.
I realized, it is not easy to make a living on a low-wage income...
So both of these stories held true in my opinion.
