So stressed out ( long post, rant)
I love my job. Absolutely love it. My boss is an amazing person. Reasonable. Nice easy to get along with. And I love making women’s hair look amazing....But the pay. Omg the pay is so horrible! And it’s nothing that I can fix! I bust my ass off at work. But we are the cheapest hair salon in the town......everyone comes to us because they all get a bad experience at all the other salons or they charge them twice as much as we do. And for the town we’re in. They’re charging too Much! They’re charging almost $50 for a haircut without getting shampooed or styled....we charge $16 for all of that......$50, That’s what you would see in some bigger cities. Our boss raised some of our prices. But it doesn’t help much. I am now stuck between either trying to get a second job to make up for what I’m not making at the shop. Or to leave, do hair on the side. And find something that’s gonna promise me full time. And of course in our town. There’s nothing !! My paycheck I just got the other day was only $350. And I have to buy new tires( mine are bald and wires are showing) Pay my car payment, and my car insurance. My boyfriend can’t help because he got cut on his hours as well and he’s paying all the house bills. And also trying to get a new truck for himself because his is about to die. And his car hasn’t been running since September-October.....I’m at my wits end and I have no idea what the hell im gonna do.....part of me wants to get my cosmetology license for Virginia and work in Winchester, and make hopefully twice as much as I do now. But the drive. That’s where a good chunk of that money will end up.
