      @@RC0926 TBF that's really good for phone support. Jon is from Montreal, and 16 years ago the min wage was $8.50/hr. Welcome to 2024, where minimum wage in Quebec is now $15.25 and phone support jobs (such as at videotron or bell) pay around $17 per hour. Considering rent in Montreal has more than doubled in that time, just to keep up to cost of living he'd have to be making ~21 an hour today to be the same Jon as he was 16 years ago.
      These raises in minimum wage continue to destroy the economy, along with many other problems.

But being somebody, having fame and fortune, often brings a lot of stress with it to the point where you start wondering if it was worth it at all.
