Alright alright. Ahead of the curve.

Damn, slightly under. Screen shot to show the boss.

I don't see Pan Handler and Street Hustler on this list? How can I possibly compare myself to my peers?

These numbers seem inflated, there isn't a teaching job on Earth that averages 90k
Unless they are increasing actual hours worked as fte

The world could do with less hr. They're pretty much a walking talking bulletin board

Seems like I'm vastly over paid which is surprising.

The highest secondary school teacher is special education at 64K.
All the others are postsecondary (college professors and instructors, etc.)

Agree. That is the missing statistic here. A competent 30-year veteran in any occupation should be making much more than someone in the same profession with little or no experience.

Nb4 physicians are overpaid

Those construction engineering salaries are absolute bullshite. Your median civil engineer isn't making 85k a year, and a civil tech isn't averaging $27/he. Only way that makes sense is if southern California and the pnw is throwing the numbers way off.
That said, I'm glad I have the right certs, and am on the good side of that median.

These have to be a bit inflated?
$112K USD that's $149K in CAD
I need to move to the States. Cost of living would be way lower too, just have to deal with healthcare.
Couldn't find my wife's job but whatever she can stay at home for that money

In many professions, experience isn't as important as having the right certifications. I make more money than my last boss in Colorado, in a place with 33-50% lot cost of living. Being with the right company and project make a world of difference.
