Quoted from chuckwurt:Looks like 20 hour work days are legal if properly paid (overtime/double time) and the proper breaks are given. So maybe it is true. Not sure I’d want that, but maybe working 3-4 of these a week can work for some.
7am to 3pm is a 8 hour day. I'm sure 3am is a typo.
Food for thought: if they paid the line workers 3 dollars more per hour (so 16.5-17) the price per game would cost 95.58 more to assemble. Per Google "At both Jersey Jack and its competitor, Stern, workers take up to 30 hours to assemble a single machine." 30*3 =90 + 6.2% social security tax 5.58 = 95.58. I know simple math but just an example. So no, it would not increase the price of the game to $85,000.
Quoted from Yelobird:Yeah we need a union in there I want to pay 85,000 for a pinball machine!
Quoted from wesman:I think I've stated once or twice in a thread that my base salary is $60K. Not bad at all. Not amazing. I'd be curious where people lie in this discussion. God forbid such a topic be discussed.
I make 43k It took me from 2009-2017 to find a job that paid anything above $10 a hour, not for a lack of trying. Lots of not selected emails. So I can empathize with the fight for 15 group. Trust me, the people in the low paying jobs work hard too.
