The only thing I guarantee is that for $30,000 a year, we'll have more alert, more dedicated, more attentive people than we did at $15,000 a year. And the open-market folks will (if they're honest) be the first to state and admit to that. </font>
Actually, it's $35K and it includes benefits. You know what Argen-not-bright is paying these jokers? About all they deserve, which is $7 an hour, with no benefits and no sick leave or vacation time.
You are so right though. You will get much, much better people applying for these positions. Holy cow, they're going to be paying a living wage. With the economy slowing, there are a lot of people who, while they don't want to do airport security for the rest of their lives, will take these jobs while they're looking for something else because they can actually make a living doing this and it pays more than unemployment.
The last time I made $7 an hour, I was a lifeguard in college.
