lol sooo sadly mistaken. I started at TWC at $11 an hour and now make over 20/hr. I have even passed up job offers (supervisor positions) because I dont want to be a baby sitter. Our raises vary from 4-7% a year and we get bonuses as well as free cable/rr.

[/quote]

Yea, let me know how those 4-7% raises get you over time compared to 20-30%

I sure am sadly mistaken :roll2:

If I didn’t do math that is…

Also I can guarantee for your one success story there is 100 others at TW that have a very different tune.

Regardless, position is still open as of now, likely will be filled end of this week.

I actually brought this up at a meeting with a bunch of IT people the other day…About Adelphia tech support making $20 a hour.

The general response was thats great…and 3 years later they will still be working as tech support or be working for you :lol:

Yeah ^^ a lot of the guys on my team have been there quite a few years 6-7 or so, I’ve been there roughly 8 monthsish, I don’t intend to stay there for even half that, but for right now the pay is decent as well as awesome benefits.

not saying u don’t know your shit in your field, but when you misspell corporate, what kind of raise do you expect? would you give a big raise to that person? just my opinion… but i couldn’t… unless they made me TONS of money.

i do not spend much time on grammar for posting online.

i tend to post more of a thought, than a perfect  
phrase or paragraph.
