Do not do this!!!

If you end up in a dispute with your phone company, you are putting yourself at their mercy. It's waaay easier to fight a charge you haven't paid yet, then to recover money you've already paid.

I've gone through hell because of this.

I'm in Montreal, full-stack developer at a small/medium-size company, four years experience, ~$80k. Feel like I messed up a bit and they would have gone for 90 or 100. But they give great benefits and a 35/hr work week.

Really? I went through the co-op program at my university and the pay range for everybody going into software was basically $15-25/hr, although I didn't hear of a single person getting over $20.

My first job was $15.50 an hour for a software dev internship at Ericsson. Then I went through two junior web dev jobs, both part-time, each paying $20/hr then $25/hr. They considered me a bargain. Now I'm making twice as much.

Harsh? Seems pretty true to me.
