even if you make 30/hr and have a normal working schedule (8hours/day for 5 days of the week) you will make 60K/year....as there are 2080 billable hours....
for you to make 6 digits either your bonus has to be bangin or you will have to work 65hours/week on an average....
sometimes i miss consulting

I wish I only averaged 65 hours a week. That number is more like 88 hours/week average.
Put in 131 hours last week.
My base bay with benefits at 40 hours a week is around 62k I grossed that 4 checks ago.

Not saying I get "ALOT" of sleep but when I do get to sleep while at work I do get paid for it.We are supposed to get 4 hours down after every 16 hours work all paid, but that works out to be 4 or 5 hours sleep/down time every 20 to 30 hours work.
And we can only charge 22 hours per day. We have to log meals for the other 2 hours but we get non-taxed per diem when that happens.
It is very easy for my crew to work 100 hour weeks while we are on-call. Thats why my boss gave me the guys he did.
I only have stipulation to be on my crew. You have to want to work and run. None of this go home bullshit after every job. We bring in right around 1 million in revenue every month on just my pump and we have 15 or so pumps in this district.
