Today, I realized that I spend more money on gas to go to my job than what I get paid. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Libertarian nightmare
Today, when I checked on my last payroll, I realized that I pay more in taxes than I do in house bills. FML

Today, I had to take a taxi to work, because I was pressed for time, and didn't have a ride there. When I got to work, I paid the cab driver, and realized I had spent more money on the cab than I was going to make at work. FML

Interesting dilemma
Today, I learned that as much as I try to save my money, it always just slips through my fingers. After rent, I got paid $280 yesterday, $85 went out on my gym membership, $95 went out on my internet, $125 went out on my Hello Fresh. I have to choose between half a tank of petrol or breakfast/lunch for the week. FML

Today, after 6 months of training and going to the gym every day, I realized that the only thing I've lost is $300 worth of gas. FML

Pay a living wage
Today, I live in a world where I work 50 hours a week, and yet after paying all necessary bills, eating one meal a day, and only drinking water from the tap, I am £130 pounds poorer than last week, all because I had to use my credit card and increase my debt to buy petrol and pay the gas bill. FML

Today, I got a call from a job I had applied for. Everything went great until I realized I had applied to the wrong location, across town. I'm so broke, I went to the interview anyway. It will cost me more to pay for the gas to drive there to work, than what I will actually make. FML

Cost of living crisis
Today, I did my budget. I have a good job, make decent money, and work full time, but without including any flexible spending items like groceries, I make $32 less than my bills each month. FML

Today, I realized that my father's weekly unemployment check is more than my bi-weekly pay check. My full time job pays less than my father's unemployment. FML

Money for whining

Today, I pulled into the gas station to fill up only to realize I had forgot my wallet. By the time I went home, got it, and came back, the price had gone up eleven cents. FML

If you can, find a cheaper way to travel to work, or car pool with someone. At least you have a job so that's a start.

Some employers will pay your fuel bills if you are spending that much to get there. Well, my mums does because her job involves driving and my dads does because he works in London.

Do you drive a tank and work 300 miles from your house? How do you even have enough time in a day to drive that far to and from work and put your time at work in? This sounds fake to me unless you make $2 an hour.

You're better off finding a job closer to you, to save money

I feel your pain . I fill up three or four times a week at 45$ a tank. I'm a delivery driver for a catering company and I drive an SUV. But luckily I make a hell of a lot more than I spend in gas. My only suggestion for you OP is try to find someone to carpool with or try to find work closer to home.
