Yeah... my current job, for some of the things we have to do... the pay is horrible.

Hey poet! How yeah doing?

I calculated... I would need 2 times more to be able to afford a home. That would be a whooping 200%.

I'm doing ok star. you?

200% to afford a home? what about an apartment?

well, due to the location I want to live, even apartment is that expensive.
You see, I obviously don't want to live in another state even if the other state's property is much cheaper.

ah so you live in a nice neighborhood?

at the edge of the city. price here already uaffordable for fresh graduates. x.x

At least it looks like fresh graduates get jobs

well with very meager wages.

here we don't even get a job... tons of people are ending up homeless here :/

:/ what happened to your city?

Our country is losing jobs to other countries constantly and are refusing to hire in the states. Especially here. Here it's getting really bad.

Is there where our best talent gone to?
We have brain drain problem, where talented people go elsewhere.

Perhaps. A lot of people in our factories aren't actually from our country in this state

But if factories, I think it is the more low wage person where the currency convert to their home would be three times more valuable!

Hm? Factories here are very well paid. [yes] We have a factory (largest building in the world) that builds airplanes.

AIRPLANES! join them! >.<

I would if they hired people that didn't already have experience...
Bit of a catch 22...

But the workers have to start somewhere! >.<

Yeah... not exactly sure where a worker would actually work...

hmm... a mystery...
Were you the one that study aero engineering?

[yes] Yeah, unfortunately while most of the engineers retire soon, they aren't training new people to replace them.

what? then won't the factory be talent free?

Probably. But they will probably outsource all the work to China and other places like that.
