That’s actually a decent wage depending on the workload / responsibility level. Anything above basic computer repair and installation i.e.: Database, server or website work I would be spewing the “Sorry, that’s way past my pay-grade,” line.
In this economy though, if you don’t have a job already…it’s a good idea to snatch up whatever you can.
If you are unemployed or qualify for training subsidies you may get a slightly higher start rate.
If you share leroy’s opinion, you’re welcome to apply elsewhere.

Actually, that’s pretty good for a starting wage considering the requirements.[/quote]
While I haven’t really spent any time in FSJ, last time I drove though there (this was a couple years ago), MacDonalds was advertising $15 an hr. So while I can’t comment on this job specifically, I would recommend that anyone looking into this, take a look at the economy there and do the math re rent, food, etc.
To the OP, best of luck getting this slot filled. Working short staffed blows.
You might be thinking of Fort St. John. We’re don’t have a McD’s. Shit we don’t even have one franchise food chain here, the first guy to open one will be rich. The moneyed people that live here are convinced they wouldn’t make money. They don’t know their own kids would gorf down 15 Big Macs a week rather than one tasteless $10 burger that takes and hour to make while the owner sneers at them.
Rent isn’t insane yet, there’s not a lot to spend your money on and there’s a HUGE lake here.
A PG radio celeb once asked me “What’s wrong with you people? You have this huge damn lake, beautiful beaches and parks and trails and you keep trying to market your town’s history. Don’t you know people’s eyes roll back and they start to snore as soon as you say the word ‘history’?”
