[quote=spdrun]Electronic technician? Depending on what exactly he’s troubleshooting, he could be making $50-100/hr. Perhaps more than an engineer — skilled tradesmen aren’t easy to come by.[/quote]
Trust me, he’s far from that. My guess is, $50-75k/year. You’ll understand why I would guess that by just watching how they save/spend.
BTW, I’d like to see some data to back up the claim that an electronic technician with an AA degree make $100/hr in San Diego. I’m extremely skeptical to say the least. $100/hr is equivalent to over $200k/year. Even engineering directors don’t make that much. Maybe once you get to the VP level. Unless you’re talking about contractors making $100/hr with any benefits. But even then, that’s still hard to believe.
