$41+/hr?

[IHateMyJob2004]

I thought I was doing good at $31/hr.

But, $41/hr is $85K/yr

I wasn't to shocked to see people making that. But 19% of you claim to be making $85K+

So, start talking. Who are you and what do you do.

And the thread i am referring to is here:

You make 31 dollars an hour but dont know the difference between to and too. Great.

 

[keeleysam]

95% of them are lying

 

[Rip the Jacker]

90% of them are probably lying.

You probably got straight A's all your life and will work for someone else that can't spell the rest of your life. Congrats for pointing out unimportant things! Here is your obligatory cookie:

Ya, work is her life. Don't worry to much about it.

Did he get it wrong or something?
to Audio pronunciation of "to" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (t; t when unstressed)
prep.

1.
1. In a direction toward so as to reach: went to the city.
2. Towards: turned to me.

too Audio pronunciation of "too" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (t)
adv.

1. In addition; also: He's coming along too.

He is directing us to the thread. Personally I would think to is the correct word.
Like saying "Go to this thread to see what I'm talking about".

It is just sad that people cannot use the correct to too and two or your vs youre or there their and theyre or even then vs than. It bothers me.

Im 24 my car is paid off. My home will be more than half paid for by the end of the year. I have a wonderful loving wife. At this point I could really care less if I am working for someone else or not.

I am a teacher - it is difficult to start your own business involving this profession unless you want to start a religious private school (I do not.) I did quite well in my computer science courses and then I realized that its not about how much money you make.. its about happiness so now I try to help our youth. What do YOU do?

I own a small consulting firm, and I bill myself out at $100/hr; those under my payroll bill out roughly the same, although I have someone as low as $70. I also maintain some retainers at a rate of $75/hr. At the moment my contract is fulfilled until '07.

Sell yourself short and you'll quite obviously find yourself behind others. $41/hr is low for a professional.

Actually, he was right. The word "to" was used more than one time. One usage of it was incorrect, the others (including the situation to which you were referring) were correct. He said, "I wasn't to shocked..." That was the wrong to.

Im not really surprised that you dont even see your own mistake once its been pointed out to you. It is funny that youre calling me owned and looking like a tard though.

Almost but i think he was referring to "I wasn't to shocked to see people making that"

It should be "I wasn't too shocked.."
