Actually Katie, I'd thought the min wage was $11.80/hr as of May this
year...could be mistaken though.



What's that in real (USA) money?

According to this morning's exchange rates, 1 Australian dollar is worth .70
of USA money.....

Thanks Katy. Ozzy didn't know. So Taddys' $11.80 (AUS) would equal $8.26
(US) here? That's more than min. isn't it? Our shop guys make 12~15/hr.

Shouldn't tell Katy that, she shops for free.

I don't allow my wife in my garage, unless she's bringing me lunch.

At our house, it's the same thing. Never know what you can find.

I know there's at least two boats hiding in there somewhere. Last time I went
rummaging in the garage, I found a sander I'd long forgotten I had....

Way more...the Federal minimum is 5.15/hr. Some states have their own which
always has to be higher than the Fed. We pay our high school wait staff
6.00 to start and 6.50 after 90 days....housekeepers, etc start at 7.50 and
nurse's aides at 10.00....and we are higher than many states.
