A lot of the stuff I do around the store is way above my pay-grade, so I'm pretty content right now ^^

Geez.
I was being paid 7.25 an hour where I worked last. Then I got a raise within the first month, which was pretty nice. To 7.75 an hour.
Factory job paid like 10.60 an hour though. As much as I hated it, getting 40 hours a week with paid breaks made that paycheck ridiculously awesome...

Minimum wage here is $10.25. :(
I guess living expenses are lower in the states.

How much does rent for a decent apartment cost over there?

Some basic gist of things here: Overall, even from a minimal perspective, I'd probably pay about 800 dollars a month for survival alone. If I live in a cheap apartment, eat cheap, don't buy anything outside of the very necessities, and take into consideration maintenance on a vehicle.
I don't know what you'd define a "decent apartment", but a two bedroom can easily run up to around 1000~1500 dollars monthly. I found a cheap 700/month apartment and lived in it once, but man that was really a dump.
