Default wages and animal jobs
there have been a lot of threads recently about animal jobs and them being crap pay. i just wondered if people would tell me what job they do (animal or not) and what they earn. i know animal jobs dont pay great but then not many jobs do IMO.

anyone????

Reptile Shop Manager (not owner). My pay is only enough to keep up with the bills and cars because the Hubby gets paid a fairly good wage...
If I were on my own I wouldn't have a hope in hell of paying even the lowest rent or having a car.
