    Congratulations on the job bro! I'm not sure about you, but I definitely wouldn't be able to live off of 12.50 an hour. I make $29.75 before benefits and overtime and I'm strapped for cash.

    Drive safe. My expedition hit a patch of ice and I was veering across, thank god it was a 4 lane highway and no one was in other lane....

    Hope you get that job good luck!

    I guess it just depends where you live. In NY and CA it might not be, but in Florida it is.

    Also, unless you've gone through some type of formal shooling or college, or worked for a company for 20+ years you aren't going to be making even close to that.

    Ya I guess. It's only like 65k a year though... so above average... but not all that much. More than teachers and most people make.

    It's enough to have a comfortable life. Most people make between $8-$12

    I get paid a bunch of benefits too and make around 70k a year with benefits, without overtime. It's around $35-36 an hour with benefits included. Where I live, a one-bedroom bachelor pad will run you $1000 a month. Renting a house is $1500-2000 a month, depending on the quality of the home.

    I went to college for two years too. Not bad, but mortgage payments, car payments, insurances, hydro, and the rest of the bills sure fucking add up.
