        LOL 65k. Any decent flat rate tech is making double that. Was offered a job in Cali that would have paid me triple that, but then I would have to live in the US.

            Never apply to a shop that posts ads, it’s guaranteed to be a shitty workplace.

            There’s a reason they have ads up lmao.

            A decent tech could flip his boss off and not even be halfway through packing his and have 2 job offers lined up.

            All the decent flat rate techs I know make that much. Some much more. I don’t know anyone who has had to apply for a proper job through a job posting. It’s all through word of mouth. I have never had to “apply” for a job. All those listings must be for pretty shitty jobs, especially if they have a “salary”. Means they have hardly enough work for their techs. Any good shop will pay flat rate. So you can get paid 20-30 hours in an 8 hour shift. My best day was 36 hours in an 8 hour shift. And I make $41/hr.
