It's from Electronics Illustrated. Radio mechanics for Pan Am Airways. You need your FCC Technician's license and some basic experience. No degrees. Walk in the door it's $28 an hour. I assume you had to demonstrate some basic skill.

Pay, in CPI adjusted dollars is $28.20 - $30.84. That doesn't include increases in housing and energy costs. $30 an hour for just having your radio license and some know-how.

Median house price was $24,700 that year, and that was considered "trying." About 3.1x the top rate.

I've been offered a similar job doing radio repairs on military equipment for about $22 an hour. Median house price in 2021 was $408,000. About 9x the rate for the same job.

The problem isn't that people want $15 for flipping burgers, it's that companies that have non-afterschool jobs aren't paying anything worthwhile these days.

Yep, I remember.

I am loving all the wailing and crying about how people don't want to work anymore after the put everyone out of work over the cohen19 and fucked people hard for a year. Come on, goyim! Go back to shitty jobs and be treated like shit! What's wrong with your goyim? Uncle Sam MUST force the goyim back to work but they better be vaccinated and boosted or you will get fired!

That's something a few have pointed out - how the government put the fear of cohen into everyone and businesses threw people out the door because muh fears.

Now those same people don't want to go back to those same jobs because they're pissed or they're scared. I guess it worked to well, yeah?
