    They don't need to visit a forum like this to see how they pay compared to industry standard. They are well aware of it.

    18 years driving and you still work 5 days a week?? Give me a break...[/QUOTE]

    I work 5 days 1. because I like to, 2. because I have lazy coworkers, 3. because I actually like to work
    As for income, I can tell you that the owners of my company are not fat cat CEO's driving around in Porsche's or similar. The nice thing about working for a Mom and Pop, I roughly know where my bosses live, I see what they drive to work every day, sure they have spouses that work, but at least in my case, they put a lot of money back into the company. I recall about 11 yrs ago, I had a super week, about $1,600 take home for a 6 day week, the daughter does payroll and safety, she joked that they were going to have to cut my hours, as I brought home almost as much as they each did.
