brierebecca 0 #3 March 23, 2006 because waiters make all their money in tips, not salaries. 2.15 an hour doesn't add up to much.

Lindsey 0 #16 March 23, 2006 BUT....the beauty is that there's moonlighting. Which was what I did last night. It takes me two weeks to earn in my residency what I made last night in a little ER....(and I did get to snooze a little). It was pointed out to me, though, that too much work, despite the pay, can cut into your sanity time. I think that's probably true. linz-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

wildcard451 0 #17 March 23, 2006 Oh def. I can't wait to get back in to the anesthesia dept here as a senior where we can moonlight in dept. one shift a month adds 25% to your yearly salary.

lawrocket 3 #20 March 23, 2006 I did a quick scan and I don't think I saw any job listed that worked as many average hours as lawyers. We apparently make good money, though it's interesting to note that the "median hourly" is so much less than the "average hourly." Probably because of the amount of money that the lower associates make. I mean, you've got new associates in big firms taking in 135k per year. A large number of them are REQUIRED to bill 2,100 hours per year, or roughly 40 hours per week. About $64.00 per hour. Note that "billable" hours are different from "work hours." You can expect to bill roughly 2/3 of the hours you work. This means that they can expect to put in 60 hours to get 40 hours. This lowers the average "hourly" to $43 per hour. Sure, it's a lot of money to most. But the quality of life "inhales with gusto." It's why so many lawyers leave the big firms and go into a public interest firm, where they'll take a 50 percent pay cut but have a better quality of life. I shoulda lived my dream and became a pilot... Edited to add: I see that actors and directors make good money. I wonder how much of that is due to the outliers making $10 million -$20 million per film. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nathaniel 0 #24 March 24, 2006 I knew a guy that studied Geology in school but eventually abandoned the field and went into IT. He claimed that most geology jobs were gov't related survey type work or the RAND corporation, and either way had crappy hours and around $20k starting salary in the '90s. Maybe by geologist they probably mean the researcher types that walk into active volcanoes.My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose.
