Jeff:  et all

Arguing that "unskilled" workers in the private sector make more money than 
'government workers" is as old as the government itself. Teachers with 
Masters and 30 years experience make less than automobile manufacturer 
assembly line workers with 5 years of experience. 

My point was that if our profession wants to be treated as fairly as 
possible, we have to look at the pay scale at the institution for which we 
are going to work. If a professional staff member, one who is not teaching, 
but is considered highly trained, even with a degree, is making x number of 
dollars, then that is what a piano technician should get paid. We should not 
be lumped in with secretaries or maintenance people.
