    What I saw the other day:

    Lead software engineer - salary $25 an hour

    That’s why people don’t want to work.

      Salary is a scam to get people to work unpaid overtime and never really getting to clock off. It’s effectively making an employee always on-call.

      Honestly, I don’t think it matters how much you get paid, if you are expected to work beyond 40 hours a week, you deserve extra compensation for doing so.
