The way I do the math this kid is making too much per hour. It looks like he may be ripping off FEMA.
$26,000 for 2 months work or $l3,000 for one's months work of construction,plumbing, electrician. HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excuse me, but how much would you pay a contractor to
build a garage or a pool at your house? More than $16/hour, and I am sure that depending on the company, they pay their people more.
I see a combination of people saying that illegals are depressing the wage base (they are), and now that they may be making too much.
$16/hr. is actually less than what some construction workers earn in other areas of the country. If the building industry is good, I know people who start out over $20 an hour and they are not working on a Gov. contract either.
4,### a week. Not everyone works for FEMA. A foreman under contract is paid in that most capitalistic way. By production. I never started this to say that this was the norm. Most of my customers that went say they are making about 13- 16 hr
