So would a lot of others, but is not a high salary. Is a decent salary

about $15k. Money is worth about 20% of 1980 dollar. So $60k is below
what an assembly line worker would now make with inflation.


My wife makes $68k as a maintenance director at a country club and she
is shopping for a construction project manager job in the $75-100 k
range
She already turned one down because it was too far away (35 miles)

Not bad for a girl in SW Florida with a high school diploma.


Not bad at all. But she has to be good to get where she is. Not a lot of
young HS diploma people making big money these days. Neither are those
with basket weaving Liberal Arts degrees. Spend $150k getting an English
degree and Masters so you can teach school at $48k a year? Maybe should
have got a science degree and start at $75k.

Maybe 8 or more if you want it "Piled Higher & Deeper".



There you go again with your disdain for academic achievement.



Nothing wrong with a career in academia. Someone has to run the
Universities and Colleges.




I wasn't talking about a "career in academia." I was talking about
academic achievement. I realize that any discussions of that nature are
bound to be hooted in this pigsty of anti-intellectualism.



You are so predictable it's hilarious. I can't think of anyone here who
could be considered being "anti-intellectualism". I can think of many
however who are tired of listening to repetitive, closed minded, "my way
or the highway" comments and condemnation of other views.



Indeed...I don't read most of the "my way or the highway posts" of most
of the righties here, including your juvenile delinquent buddy, FlaJim.
BTW, did his kids join the military?


Constantly prying, eh Krause?

BTW, how do you know his posts are insulting to you? You *do* have him
filtered, correct?

You're a joke, Krause.

He looks at speshull headers that tell him so. ;-)


If it were me, and I were fearful of reading your insulting (but true)
posts, I'd look at the top of the message, see your name in the list,
and immediately hit the 'Delete' button.

Maybe Apples don't have 'Delete' buttons?

If it were you, you wouldn't know how to set up filters. I don't have to
do anything once they are set up, actually, because the filtration is
automatic on the users whose posts aren't worth any time. If I wish, I
can open up the filter and check out how many posts have been filtered,
what the topics were, and who the senders were...the header info...but
not the contents. Most of the right-wing turds are in there.

Perhaps you should stick to the multitude of time-wasting hobbies at
which you will never achieve any measure of success.

He used the term 'simple math', like Math for Liberal Arts Majors,
which satisfies the requirement for a math course in college.

I can see you're proud of your ability to set up a filter in an Apple.
I'm also glad you can satisfy your immense curiosity by checking all
the data you check.

That is surely a much more valuable use of time than a hobby.

It is no wonder you are so proud of yourself.
