I was just wondering if there is any one in a worse situation in this bad economy. Honestly I don’t think so, but just want to hear your opinion.
I am working for more than 5 years to the same company, without supervision and doing only structural (residential and commercial all kind). I get paid a little over 30K / year (more exact would be 32 K), I am a full time employee, but get paid as 1099, so that means I have to pay my own tax. After I do that is a little more than 25K./year. I do not receive any benefit (no vacation paid, no holiday paid, no health insurance of any kind, no bonuses of any kind and the list can go on, basically the only benefit is my salary paid in time).
It's kind of frustrating, but I take as it is for now. I had my exam last October, just praying to get the PE so I can move on. :
Good luck to everyone and Happy Holidays.
