| 861805 | 2010-02-27 11:16:00 | Lol 20bux an hour. That's a bit of a laugh. I see computer shops hiring students for $13/hr. I imagine that a student would be the only type that would be interested in working 7-10 hours a week and as such it seems a reasonable pay rate. Nevertheless, if I found someone who was very good that could be a bit higher. Problem is I need to allow for if they're gonna stuff up sometimes and do work that can't be billed. |

| 861812 | 2010-02-28 03:29:00 | $20 is not bad for a non skilled job, for a student, but it is not sustainable for anyone who is actually doing it as a living. However I don't think you can compare it to a student coming to work in a computer shop for $13 per hour, as the work will be unsupervised, and they will need to travel to each job.I am assuming that the travel time wouldn't be included in the hourly wage, nor the cost of driving, which works out at about 60 cents per km. In fact after those costs are removed, it may work out as a better deal getting $13 at a computer shop. | robbyp (2751) | ||

In fact after those costs are removed, it may work out as a better deal getting $13 at a computer shop. You will be compensated per kilometre for the use of your vehicle. AA mileage figures assume the car is purchased new. However most of us drive used cars and the cost of travel is more like 30-38 cents. I intend to pay 38c. Travel time is paid in one direction. So for a single job, travel there is paid, travel home is not. However, this means that if several are strung together, only the final trip home is unpaid. In most jobs you are required to get to and from work in your own time. In this economy an unskilled job generally pays minimum wage or within $1 of it (eg supermarkets, retail etc). I worked last year at an electronics store (not DSE) over summer and was paid minimum wage. The job required reasonable electronics knowledge. Thus for a skilled (but not highly skilled) job suitable for a student $20 seems reasonable. |
