The figures are laughable ... and it's even more laughable that you think they're over stated. When was the last time you heard of a tradesman earning $30 an hour? And I'm not talking about the plumber or whatever that's self employed who comes out to fix your toilet at $100+ an hour + callout fee, I'm talking about the average bloke on the tools working for someone else. $30 an hour? You have to be kidding yourselves. It really just shows how little some people get out in the real world .....
