[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anecdotally, based on what I see in my agency, this is correct. Painters make 6 figures . . . these are people who roll pre-ordained colors onto walls.[/quote]

Yeah, and Lebron James just throws balls into mounted hoops.  Obstetricians just pull babies out of vaginas.  School teachers just regurgitate what's already in the textbooks.  Easy stuff huh?  I bet aaaaannnyyyone could do thaaaat job.   :roll:

Have you ever tried being a painter?.....exposing yourself to harmful chemicals, working around assholes such as yourself?  [/quote]

Your comparisons are ridiculous and, well, stupid. Painting walls with rollers in standard colors is hardly the same as delivering a baby or educating the youth of America. Messy? yes. Dangerous? Uh, no. These guys have all the protections one could ask for. They are unionized. They are well protected and coddled (they have big screen TV in their breakroom where they watch movies while on breaks, of which there are plenty as per their union contract). While I have zero problem with them making a decent living, making in excess of 6 figures is absurd.

You clearly know nothing about what the folks in my building do. I am intimately familiar with them given my work and I know their job and their working conditions are not difficult. So you keep rolling your eyes. You just look dumb.[/quote]
