chrishoekusmc Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 well yes we do get paid a bit , but the cost of living is double what it is there. min wage here is $12.50. I was there back in 08 or 09, awesome place. The exchange rate was around 1 to 1 but everything costs about 2 times as much and everybody earns about twice as much. Some random lady pushing buttons on a cash register told us she was making 18 bucks per hour. And a case of beer cost us 40 bucks. Great place though. My favorite saying I learned there is Bob's your uncle. It means no worries. I still use that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
