Huh? I didn't bully/insult anyone. You can't break down benefit/salary jobs into hourly rates.

Shrug, we worked at a few law firms, with a base salary, but we charged $300/hr, so there was certainly an hourly rate, and honestly at least for my wife (who literally only litigated cases and refused to do any paperwork etc in the office), it was probably MORE/HR based on her salary than the $300 because you pay a $5000 base just for a court appearance (which was usually much less then 2 hours total time including travel).

But yeah, I get what your saying. Still alot of people are charging $100+ an hour now for non-salaried positions. Automechanics for instance (think it's like $120/hr base now), electricians, plumbers etc.

Not sure on the whole nursing thing to be honest or what exactly Blu does, but you can certainly have hourly jobs that pay over $100 now aday. Had a friend awhile ago that fixed refrigeration units for big stores (like safeway/fred meyers etc) and he and all his co-workers made freaking bank per hour. Dude looked alot like The Rock actually lol. He was cool.

Wouldn't mind getting into that field to be honest and I still have my electronic techs license etc. Pretty sure he was working more than 40 hours a week though and I'd really like to avoid that if possible. I have low energy etc, sleep at least 9 hours and if I'm working 40, I pretty much will be a zombie for the rest of the time I'm awake lol.
