There may be pockets of cheap ass labor in some rural areas, but it sure as hell isn't mine.
Nah, man it's out there.
On r/Accounting someone posted an Excel Macro that would move the mouse every 5 seconds so their Teams setting doesn't switch to Away.
CPA Firms are different than most everywhere else in terms of work flow, but it's out there.

I think if you do any sort of school and aren't some sort of complete moron you could be an entry level welder and get $25/hr in a decent sized town/plant. The dudes that know their shit will command $40/hr plus and if you're willing to travel and do the hard shit sure you're gonna hit 100k plus.
I did look around at BFE Ozark country and see what welding jobs were there and it showed a few starting at $18-20/hr so Busby is tracking correctly there. They were bare minimum requirements though, like mechanical aptitude and pass an on-site MIG weld.
