Seriously...the guys claiming 25-30k first yr are not being realistic.
My first yr at RAH, I grossed $19,555. I don't include signing bonus, the $1600 "expenses" paid during training or per diem as none of that is "income". First year pay hasn't changed in 7+ yrs so this is very accurate. Of course I only worked 50 wks that yr not the full 52.
Let's all try to be honest and not exaggerate.
