Re: Amarican income?

[Scott Ryan <inago_montoya@xxxxxxxxx>]

It really depends on where you live

I think the current minimum wage (hourly) is $5.25 
That is Federal law, however, in the City of San
Francisco the minimum wage is $11.00 an hour due to
the very high cost of living out there.  A 1 room flat
 with a shared bath runs about $900 a month.  I get a
t bedroom town home with a loft for $750 here in
Houston, TX.

Here in Houston 

McDonalds and most fast food workes make about $5.25
to start.

Blockbuster Video pays CSR (clerks) 5.50 to 6 and hour
Assistant managers get about $7.50 to 8

Bank Clerks depending on experience $12-18 an hour

Radio Shack: 5.25/her plus 10% Commissions

Clothing Retail at a mall 7-8 an hour 

Watiress/Waiter:
Casual Dining - 4-5/hour + tips
Formal dining 7-10/hr + tips

Gas Station 6/hr
Auto Mechanic 15-30/hr (depending on experience)
Admin Assistants 19,000-90,000 depending on experience
and level (Executive assistans make way more, but then
they are the one that really runs the men runnig the
company)


Federal workers are on a "GS" (Government Scale) pay
system go her for more info: 
http://www.opm.gov/oca/01tables/GSannual/html/2001gs.htm

Local governments would depend on the job and how long
there.  I'd reccomend trying to go to the Human
Resources page of that cities web site for pay scales.
