&gt;She knew before moving to SF that she&#x27;d be making SF&#x27;s minimum wage, not SF&#x27;s living wage.<p>This is what confuses me. You seem to <i>agree</i> that she was not being paid enough money to live on, and yet you think there is something wrong with her writing a blog post saying so. No employer should be paying its employees less than the cost of living in the relevant location.<p>What I don&#x27;t understand is all this judgmental bullshit about her instagram feed. We don&#x27;t know who was paying for that food. We do know that she was not paid a high enough salary to pay for all of it herself.<p>&gt;I don&#x27;t think anything is being exposed here, and I don&#x27;t think she&#x27;s going to start a movement to get enough people to complain enough to get things to change.<p>Well, sure -- you are very cynical about this. In the past, things have changed because people complained.<p>&gt;This person was working at a place that provided unlimited coconut water to everyone all the time, and she complained about it. I&#x27;d hardly call that harsh working conditions.<p>What an absurd thing to say. Coconut water is obviously no substitute for money.
