  Well said.  That's what I tell the school administrators when  they call 
asking for a scholl tuning discount.  Not really... but I'd like  to

I hope you work 30 billable hours a week if you're working full time;  that's 
$1950
Guys,
Something to consider. I don't think it a stretch to say we work 1 hour  of 
unbilled time for each hour billed. Driving, scheduling, book keeping, ect.  So 
30 hours billed can mean a 60 hour week. Then, half our pay goes for  
retirement, insurance, vacation, sick leave, advertising, supplies, ect. My  point is 
our pay is divided in half then in half again when compared to a  employee 
with out those obligations. So, for us to have the same income as say  a factory 
worker, we need 4 time the hourly pay. Their $25. per hour is equal  to our 
$100. per hour. Do you keep 25% of your pay, I know I don't.
