Yeah, that's how it looks to be. My aunt does it differently, as she is paid directly by the person she's taking care of. I'm not exactly sure what to suggest to Star, but what I do know is that what he's getting now from them is basically poverty-level pay.

What I'm suggesting is that he should do it like me:

Luck out on education where you get shitty pay for 3 years but get free advanced IT courses to make free certificates. Then continue at that company for slightly less shitty pay and leech more free education and certificates.

After that, get a job offer with pretty good pay but the worst colleagues and job experiences you ever had for 5 months. Quit that job, chill for 3 months and let recruiters search you a better job. Have the recruiters give you two great options, one career option and one stable option, both with better pay than your last shitty job.

Then choose the stable job, have great colleages, a chilled work environment and surf the internet for 6h a day while getting regular raises.

 

I think that's a pretty good strategy.

Well, I'm not sure if Star's ever going to get to the "luck out" part! There's a reason why it's called luck: it doesn't happen to most people.
