Hesitant to change careers. Advice welcome.
I work for the federal government in Arizona and make a pretty decent paycheck every 2 weeks (about $2500 with around 20hours of OT). ~$33 /hr - The work however is mind numbingly… even soul crushingly tedious. I deal with people all day long and treated like a villain by the public i serve and seen as disposable by my management staff.
Ive looked up the scales and just cant wrap my head around taking such a huge pay cut (ON PAPER).
Heres my question to any apprentices who aren’t too shy to share. What does your take home pay look like weekly and how many hours does that entail ?
Again, im in Arizona so local 640 info would be awesome but anyone else with info please feel free to chime in.
