We've got a guy here at Spirit who used to sling gear at TAM. Now while I haven't gotten specifics from him, he did tell me that the pay was "pretty miserable". So I'm guessing it's safe to say that the pay for Azul is even lower.

Mind you, in Brasil, $1000 a month is considered "good", yet a Honda Civic (base model) will set you back around $50k and gas is going for about $6 a gallon... Thankfully Brahma beer and most churrascarias go for fairly cheap, so there is a tiny bit of balance... But not much.
