So, I'm getting my first paycheck for a whole two weeks of work today. I viewed my pay statement online, and holy cow, between taxes and other deductions, I have almost $250 taken out of every check. I'm still making a fair chunk more than I used to, and I realize I've got union dues and a forced retirement plan in there any everything, but cripes, that's what a whole paycheck was at my old job. Next month there will be even more taken out, as the union lost and we have to pay a lot more for insurance. Eek.
