It seems incredible that this is happening right now. Many know that Venezuela has one of the lowest salaries in Latin America. My mom worked as a cook for more than 25 years, today it was her turn to collect her monthly salary which in exchange was 1.34 dollars. What would you do if you receive less than two dollars a month?
She says all this makes her want to cry. How many years of work and she think that when she retired she would be calm. And it has been the opposite ... The day to day is worrying about food. Just recently I read that the minimum that someone could charge would be 2 dollars a day. She charges less than $ 2 a month. This does not seem fair to me, especially now in the middle of a pandemic. That we can't do anything.
I think everyone who knows me knows that I am quite positive and optimistic in the midst of all this. But there are days where I can't be optimistic. And today is one of these days, where I would like to have a good amount of savings and that my mom would not have to worry about anything. With her one month salary, she can only buy 2 pounds of corn flour ... And during the rest of the month she eats? This is a little unfair...
