[QUOTE="Macbrother, post: 1137008, member: 42759"] I see this line of reasoning quite often and it always amazes me. At 19 hours a week (my usual average, some PTers work a little more, a little less) it'd take over $30 an hour to make a wage you could live off of. Do you see anyone here asking for that type of money? I don't think something like a catch up raise is too much to ask given A) The unique and inflexible hours we work, B) The extreme physical nature of the job and the toll it takes on you physically and mentally, and, C) the time it takes to make FT. It's a war-zone in there, most days I'm relieved to be walking out the door alive and in one piece. [/QUOTE]
