“It is a crime that Amazon makes billions off their backs while they can’t even afford to buy a home near the warehouse.”

Can confirm, I considered an engineering job in Riverside in ~2018. The salary offered to me as an early-to-mid career engineer was barely enough for the cheapest 1 bedroom apartment I could find. When I asked for a salary study, I was told “people make sacrifices” to work in CA and that I could find something cheaper by renting a room under the table or by commuting an hour-plus. If they would do that to a “white-collar” professional, imagine the coercion towards an hourly laborer consider low or “no” skilled.
Good luck, folks working at DJT6. I’ll be cheering for you.
