"I started working as Teaching Assistant at WMU. After this contracted position, they wanted me to work for Human Performance Institute. I started as a R&D Project assistant for Haworth Company. As a result, WMU pays same amount which is 15$/hour to all employees. That amount was enough when I was student but now I don't think that same amount will be enough for me."
