[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Times have changed. Any of us have experienced huge pay decreases, especially in government contracting. [/quote] I think this is true. The last time you were looking was before the recession. People were splurging on all sorts of things; I remember people talking about bidding wars for nannies prior to 2008! Fewer people feel comfortable spending beyond their means now, which reduces the number of available jobs and raises the competition, and even those who can afford it are more cautious in their spending (though the economy is improving, so maybe this will change). In the DC area, for example, private schools have seen a dip in enrollment while public schools are bursting at the seams, even in marginal school districts. People just aren't spending like they used to. That said that seems like a major change in pay in general. Not sure what's going on there![/quote]
