It's easy to explain... People still aren't making as much as they used to.
I have a friend of mine who worked in marketing for a large firm, made big bucks. She got laid off. Work was impossible to find. Eventually she got a part time job at Starbucks, which eventually turned into a full time job. She's making one fourth of what she used to.
