I've never been a union member and my income has steadily increased over the past 25 years while working in the industry. I now manage a department of technicians. This didn't simply fall into my lap because I was in the right place at the right time...I earned it. I went to school, got my degree, got years of experience under my belt...simply put...I made myself valuable.
I suppose teachers with 20 years of tenure deserve their pay raises regardless of the fact that they may be poor educators as well.
Well that is great that you went back to school but that is not everyone's cup of tea. I still do not think it is fair to pay just $5.00 a hr. because they only want to work on a assembly line.
That is what we call life. It is called equal opportunity.And teachers good or bad still have to pass a board exam and be certified to teachI suppose teachers with 20 years of tenure deserve their pay raises regardless of the fact that they may be poor educators as well.
You can think whatever you want, but if one believes they're entitled to more simply because of tenure is foolhardy. Want more out of your career? Then do something! Gain more knowledge/skills to make yourself more valuable. This idea of entitlement just "cuz" has ruined the American work ethic. And people wonder why we're getting our asses handed to us by the rest of the world.
so...you think that might be because of your intelligence? so...a person not as smart as you should not be able to make a desent living?

If one doesn't want to learn more and thusly make themselves more valuable...Too bad, so sad.
But that is me.But I would never be as selfish to say that the people that I worked with at ford motor co. did not deserve the money they got paid. I cant tell you how many times I left that place with bloody fingers form turning bolts and pushing push pens and stuff. But like the person said above me many many of them did not like their jobs but they had and took pride in what they did and that was their American dream.
What does pride have to do with it? Because he was proud, he should be entitled to more pay? My father is barely literate. When I was an infant, he picked crops in the fields with the Mexicans to put food on the table. Why? Because it was the only job he could find. Would you pick crops? Most Americans feel that a job such as that is beneath them.
WTF does that even mean, "over six digits"? So that means they paid seven digits?
No...And you're missing the point as usual.
100k fool
. At least that is what I was told it cost. I dunno I did not flip the bill
Wouldn't that be round about exactly six digits? In my math class six digits goes up to $999,999.100k fool
