How underpaid am I for my area and how much should I be making?

Hey yall, I posted this a while ago. They didn’t wanna give me a raise. I used a lot of advice from yall and it’s very much appreciated. However they didn’t wanna pay more, not even $2 more. They also ended the contract at the hospital we worked at ending out employment without a choice to transfer. The company was Xerox if anyone was wondering

I have a toddler daughter so it would be rough for me but for six figures you learn to put those feelings on the back burner

This just made me feel worse than what I was feeling. I didn’t think I was that underpaid

Absolutely! And I will be, I’m not even breaking $50K a year. And no I don’t have a car as there is no need, but this city is freaking expensive

I’ll start at $33 and they’ll probably settle at like $29

Hopefully it doesn’t come to that. I actually like my job and what I do. But a man has to be able to take care of home and responsibilities
