Yes! Free Internet

Yes! I'm finally able to steal free internet!

Anyway, some interesting observations that I've made about Taiwan. The salary here is alarming low. The average for a college graduate is about $800(US) a month. In addition, there is no minimum wage here and so when I saw that Subway was looking for employees, their starting wage is a mere $3 an hour. This is okay since food is also incredibly cheap here, but the clothes here are atrociously expensive in the department stores. Clothes here in department stores are easily $100(US) for something that you can buy in forever 21.

The clothes on the side of the streets are relatively cheap at about $13 a shirt. The funny thing about Taiwan is somehow American Eagle and Old Navy are very big here. A shirt can easily cost $30(US) for something that cost $15 in the US. Also, there are a lot of people who are making cheap knock-offs. For example, the AE logo looks a little off. Also, Aeropostale is spelled Aeropstle... a clear sign that it is a knockoff... or that the factory messed up and they are pushing all the faulty merchandise in Taiwan.

Anyway, I'm having tons of fun... though I feel the urge to work sometimes. I also think that I am single-handedly saving the Taiwanese economy by buying tons of clothing.
