“Real average hourly earnings decreased 3.0 percent, seasonally adjusted, from September 2021 to September 2022. The change in real average hourly earnings combined with a decrease of 0.9 percent in the average workweek resulted in a 3.8-percent decrease in real average weekly earnings over this period.”

Good thing that CWA negotiated that contract extension with a pay loss due to inflation and "modest" medical plan rates. Bravo Chris Shelton!

As a network assurance engineer I actually spend more than half my day selling real estate on the side. I know one project manager who runs a comic book shop. These jobs are very easy with little to oversight.
