My hourly pay is $20/hr. and I work for an independent contractor as a draftsperson.
I would say my pay is not worth it, because my checks don't pay enough for my medical expenses, due to infrequent hours, and I have to work in a disruptive environment, because there's a lady in our cramped office who is always on her phone working on her other business.
I am leaving to get another job for $28.85/hr. and hopefully I will be much happier there.
