hey the new world currency.. no longer the mighty "green back".. rather the
"mighty red and sometimes green with tractors and a little bald guy on it,
back"

quite catchy huh.. think it might catch on??

When I said $17.00 an hour offered to work at Microsoft
Canada in the SMS engineer role, that was in Canadian $$.
That translates to approx. 10.50 US$ per hour, or £6 in
British currency per hour.

I think we can all agree that £6 an hour to be an engineer
for any product is just rediculous.

Might as well apply for this position:

We start all our new Associates at a minimum of $8.25 an hour for one simple
reason...you are important to us! And our commitment to a higher starting
wage is just one of the ways in which we show it. Another way is through
offering excellent benefits like flexible schedules to accommodate school
and other activities, paid vacations, free meals, comprehensive training,
and a 401k plan. For our full time Associates, we provide a benefits package
that also includes medical, dental, vision, life and travel insurance
coverage.
