"George W. Bush dismantled America's economy, and we got punished! In 2001, I was paid $75 an hour for my skills. In 2014, with more skills and more knowledge, I'm paid $50 an hour for the same job. And, Bush implemented the business of "Exempt" and "Non-Exempt" employees; Exempt workers are not paid overtime for their labors. That's a Deal Breaker when I apply for contract work. Technical Writing is not software development. I refuse to accept jobs where the employer insists that the Technical Writer is Exempt from overtime pay. (And that topic comes up often!)"

"Although my financial compensation was higher at Chevron, so were my responsibilities; so I would have to say the monetary rewards at FlexSteel were adequate for the type of work I did. The dollar amount per hour never changed, but the number of hours, and subsequent overtime, did, making my overall financial compensation increase. Changing jobs simply for an increase in pay would not be enough for me to "jump ship"; there would have to be other positive factors needed to make such a change in my career."
