I filled up an application here at a place named Eryxma Networks in Kingwood, TX and I applied for tech support for this new hosting company. And well the day after they hired me for $19.50 an hour and gave me a labtop and they will pay for internet access to some tech support when I get home from work. The company hasn't opened, it will on the 18th and I start on the 17th.

How much does tech support techs get payed?

This means I have to stop wasting my time with my dear ol nintendorks.com :(

Nintendo will be missed for me...

It all depends upon your skills and technical expertise. If you feel that you might be ripped, what would you expect to be paid?

Congratulations...

That's a good start though....good luck!

I never worked for this much before, but the owner seemed to like our website : Nintendorks.com and wanted me to move it to their servers.
Also well I don't do anything at home, and the last time I has a physical job was like 2 years ago. I was employee #14 I guess I was one of the lucky ones, I thought I was #7 but looking at my new ID it is #14.

i would say that is rather well considering this company has not even started yet

but,


are you gauranteed hours

what if for the 1st four months u sit at home waiting to work
or whever it is you will be working and there is now work ?

I started working for these people for a week.. and well has it been though....getting these things to work...and well I mainly held responsible here...I haven't been able to come back to the boards...

Well gotta get back to work.

IS that $US 19.50?? That's a kick arse rate. I guessing you'd be pretty young cos you haven't worked much before.

Here in Canada I could have a job at McDonalds and get paid like $7.00... I forget what the minumum wage is here in Canada, but it means that they'd like to pay you less but the goernment won't let them:D :D

anyways 19.50 US is a veeery good rate


MY 300TH POST:dunce:

What's the conversion rate for Canadian dollars these days? In Australia, we're half an American :bawling:

Hell, I've run my own host for two years and don't get that.

(From hosting, anyway... heh)

:eek:

That is what a very small % of people down here earn PER DAY!!!


It's no wonder tech costs kill me! What most companies charge per hour, ie. $100, is what the average person down here earns in half a month. The above average person will earn about 2 to 5 times that per month. But I'm not one of them :bawling:

So, has anybody got a job for me? :D

... I'm gonna go and back my bags so long...

we're pretty much the same here in Canada. It sucks, dosn't it?:bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling:

Congrats on the new the job. I think that rate is very good for just starting plus it is an excellent resume builder if you choose to look elsewhere in the future. In comparison to the market I would say you are getting above average wages for a tech position at least for my area on the east coast.
