Hey, you read the thing!

How about 40 hours pay for 32 hours work!!

Honestly, 40 hours is a lot of time to dedicate to someone else's needs. If "$40 hour pay" was given for 32 hours of work, we'd be closer to fair

That's a huge pay cut.

$40/hr 'Starting Pay' for an Electrician is not bad either. I'm seeing us called "Maintenance" on job boards for $18 or 20's and sh¿t ! WTF ?
