Damn if I didn't already have a couple rugrats running around this would be pretty cool, always thought it would be cool to be a tech in a top notch shop.

Just like I told my boss a while back when I passed on a promotion.

I would rather make less money and love my Job than to make more money and Hate it...

Money is not everything in this world, I know people that make less than 20k and they live a happier life than people making 100k.

It wasn't good how he put it but he does have a point.

They could said pay range 50k to 80k or something like that.

So that the people have an idea of what the job pays.

Just my .02

(hell I'm a jobless 18 year old, I'd kill for a $20 an hour job, one day hope to say I don't want a job that is ONLY 30/hr)


Someone on here once said something a few years ago that really stuck with me and it changed my way of thinking so much I had to PM this guy and tell him how much it helped me. My motto is, if you can find a job that you love and pays really well, great! All the power to you! But I'd rather have a very well paying source of income that I don't love or even like that can let me afford to do all the hobbies and things I DO love outside of it! Like cars for example, or vacations, etc I'd rather do that than have a job that pays substantially less than wouldn't let me afford to do those things, even though I may love the job. Everyone has a preference but that's just how I work. I know that is the mindset of MANY successful people and it's the one I'm going to continue to use.

Kinda ridiculous for you guys to bash him just because of what he said, I agree it could have been worded a bit better but he's totally right

Im going to say this could have been avoided by just sending a resume by e-mail and/or calling the number that was listed in the sig or the first post.
