15. I think 26,000 a year is a decent salary.

Its not the best pay, but there are a lot of people making less who would love to make that much money.

And for the record, even some government jobs have crappy pay. The post office has temp positions open with 0 guaranteed hours, no benefits, and 10.00 an hour. So not even the post office is immune from shitty positions.
