My monthly pay is a joke
After taxes I'm making $2400 a month and I only accepted that because I'm new to the industry and thought I could work my way up to a raise. I'm living with parents because obviously I can't afford to live anywhere else. Since the changes have come out, our office is constantly worried about the budget and already fired someone. I think they're keeping me because I'm so cheap. I don't know where to go but I came into this job not really wanting to do it in the first place, just to get on my feet for a while. I can see how people in sales could make more but I'm mostly doing customer service.
I'm debating now on pivoting to a different career again or looking for a different jobs, near St Louis, maybe at an independent or just related and in sales. Any advice?
Edit: Also wondering if I do interview somewhere what would be a good amount to ask for with base pay? As someone who's been in the industry about 6 months, and has L/H and P/C licenses.
