i still kind of wish i didnt stop doing manual labor... not saying thats all you do... but my last job paid way less but i made more money due to travel and over time...
i used to upgrade cell phone stations...
Uh, I thought you had an EE and worked in telecom, or am I confused? BSEE with minors in telecommunications start as high as $60K/year, that's $28/hr. It's a fuckton of overtime to play catchup with a base pay of half that wage.

all experienced based... no degree... probably wont be able to get my associates finished (need one semester) until next fall. Most telecom jobs (unless your working for a big company like att) just want experience of at least 3-5 years if you dont have a degree. i got all my experience doing satellite communications in the army so i dont need a degree but ... thats why if im lucky... ill make 65 this year...

my job takes care of me with full benifits and a flex plan so i dont pay ---- for medical or dental or any of that... then we get quarterly bonuses and i do work some over time... plus i get my first raise in next quarter so i should make at least 55...

this is not that big of a company but we are about to close a merge at the end of this month with another company and we have two other companys that HIG is setting up merge agreements... so hopefully with in the next two years we will be pushing saying good bye to our compatition caprock and maybe money inhouse will go up...
