  1. 1

    I’m currently working at a sneaker shop in the mall where I manage online orders on eBay. I’m 17 and earn $10 an hour after taxes, plus a 2% commission on sales. We make about $500 a week on eBay, but the process is pretty disorganized. I often have to ask my boss for shoe prices and whether to counter offers, which can be tiring. I feel like I’m doing a lot for the pay I receive, and I’m concerned that I won’t get extra compensation when I take over managing the online store after July. I also resell sneakers on the side to make ends meet, but finding another job has been tough. I’m starting to wonder if I’m underpaid or just complaining.
