Hey-oh, it's Riley here.

And this is Angie, your favorite OK Storytime hosts, and we've got some great stories coming up.

But before we read these crazy stories, we have a two-minute break on the sponsors that keep the show alive.

This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human.

My girlfriend told me she would dump me because I don't make enough money.

No broke boys, no new friends.

My 38 male girlfriend, 32 female, of nearly one year, constantly tells me I need to apply for better jobs or do temp work.

I make $120,000 in a really good job. She makes twice what I do. I feel all she cares

about is money. We are in a distance relationship for almost a year now, but we see each other every weekend.

About two and a half hours apart. By the way, this comes from Corrado 33. And if you want to

We only know some of the answers. So if you know some of the answers about these stories, let us know on the comments.

I do engineering work from home and I make $120,000 a year.

She's a dentist and she makes, so she says, $200,000 plus money from the business.

Her biggest issue with me is that I don't make enough money.

I have a very good, generally low stress job where I get

to work from home every day. It is 100% remote. I get good benefits, have a 401k, etc. I live in a house

I purchased by myself. She lives at home with her parents. I've done the whole ambition thing. I have a PhD in chemistry. No, you won't make

nearly what I make if you go for jobs in academia. It sucks. I made $55,000 a year as a professor

in academia before I found this job. Any job where you are required to get a good education

is just going to be taken advantage of because the people paying you know you're doing it because you love whatever field you're in. So I finally caved in after she threatened to break up with me if I didn't get a better job three times. I've been applying for jobs that have a salary range that's usually about 95k to 140k. Considering I only have three years experience

in my current job, I doubt I'd be anywhere near the top of the range, even if I were to get an

interview and be selected. There are only so many jobs I can do that are remote. I've applied for jobs at all of the companies that I've been exposed to.
