How much do you make per hour?

our tech bench starts at 9/hr. I think that's ridiculously low.. I make $10.05/hr but work only 6-7hrs a week; thus can't really argue for a raise.

It's pretty good for doing work that a money could do. Seriously, start delivering pizzas. I usually work full time, but lately I've been working about 35hours and making aroudn $450 a week with tips. 15 bucks an hour ain't bad when you just drive around in your car and listen to music ;)

software test engineer for a game company.

20/hr

43k a year plus full benefits and 3 weeks paid vacation. $1500 a semester for school(which I have not taken advantage of yet)

I got my high school diploma, from night school :)

Cant beat decent money, and not having to worry about the student loans.

Dang... overworked + underpaid... such a sweet combo considering how much anal rape-age they charge for the dumbest things. I wonder how much our techs make... (I work for the dreaded circleR)

I worked for radio shack for awhile. I didn't mind it except we had one major asshat that had worked there like 13 years. He would steal people's customers and commision. (return rering things under his #) and we never could prove it was him. I ended up quitting over it.
