Dont have to be a factory working, high school drop out to meet/exceed this regional pay. With our fearless leader Obama and his $10.10 minimum wage push and all, at 40hrs a week thats a bare minimum of $1,616/month. Collecting shopping carts in the parking lot at your local Walmart and you're allllmmooosstttt at FO pay at the airlines!
