I did the research. These painters make about $42,000 dollars a year. I think they are underpaid, dont you?

Ryan Thompson Thompson Underpaid? I know £ and $ are different, but people in my country (England) make about £25,000 a year and that's if they have a respectable earning. 42,000 dollars doesn't seem all that bad now, does it?

Wages are determined by open market. More people available to do the job, wages goes down by itself. Less people willing to do a certain job, wages go up automatically. There is a supply and demand curve to it. Fighter pilots get paid 35 to 38k. Pilot instructors get paid $10 to $15 an hour. Same with tandem jumping instructor. They do the job, cuz they love it, and there is more competition to do it.

Doug Harper I’m not saying that the camera is not safely strapped in, MY POINT IS, the camera men in any tv show never get enough credit. Take this for an example, a camera man the worked for Live PD, or cops or one of those shows got shot and killed trying to film. All I’m saying, camera man and women don’t get enough credit. No need to argue.

I was a bridgepainter for about 6 years of my career as a union painter. There is something special about it, being up that high, where few people dare to go. But, knowing that others had been there before you, had built it and repaired it and painted it reminds you that humans can do just about anything, and that anybody can do this, if they put their mind to it. You have to set aside your fear of falling off the bridge, and replace fear with respect. A guy in this video is right when he says the day you stop fearing it is the day something bad happens.

Purple Wave look up what prevailing wage is in Brooklyn and then in Washington heights not sure how that works since it’s a bridge. I know in most of Boston it’s 60 an hour. That’s non union. These guys are probably union making between 30-40 an hour with 15-20 an hour in there benefits package. Depending on how steady there work is I would say easily could be making over 100k a year.
