[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=lmaple][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have patience. She’ll get sick of the low salary and eventually land a job in corporate communications. Sounds like she has solid writing skills, and neuroscience was a good second major, so maybe she’ll put that to use at a large corporation in a few years. [/quote] This was me. My first journalism job paid $40k back in the late 90s. I switched to corporate communications in 2009 and my current salary puts me in the top 2 percentile of household incomes. I love having control of my time and being able to afford things for my kids.[/quote] Isn’t corporate comms a dying field thanks to OpenAI and ChatGPT? I mean, writing in general is pretty much dead. [/quote] It's not all writing. It's also about designing communication strategies, engaging in media relations, organizing high-level events, etc. And the writing itself is varied: talking points, social media, speeches, Op-Eds, articles. [/quote] OP is a miserable human being. [/quote] Not having to worry about a salary is a form of privilege. It means that you have a good safety net to bail you out. I am a first gen American and I had to have a good salary because there would be no help buying a car, house, etc. No nest egg if I fell on hard times. I understand why OP feels this way, but it is ultimately up to the dd to make her own way.[/quote] $70k for a 25 year old single person is fine. OP is unreasonable and you are also being unreasonable. [/quote]
