More perks less pay ???
I agree with those who suggest that different jobs are for different people. I'm single, moved to a new town in a new state, and if I didn't have work to keep me company all I would do is waste time and money on hobbies that I am already satisfied with my progress on. That, and some jobs...- 48jeep
