Interesting thread. Nice to see the salary differences. Well I guess I'm in the "crap" area of South Carolina. I work for a County system, very rural, still doing 24-48's, and making $14.82 hr, w/ of course time and a half for over time. However, I'm turning a little grey, so I like only running a few calls per shift. We have currently not broken 4000 for the year yet. So, I can't complain too much. Plus, I enjoy spending time with my daughter and fishing on my days off. That is, if my "little" business I own permits.
