Ok just wondering, because this is how I read that post: "Hey guys I found a CF job for $20 an hour :( :( :( I can't effing believe that every CF job on Earth doesn't pay AT LEAST 1 Million Dollars per hour. This is stupid right? ColdFusion is stupid now right?"
But I get that you're sincere. You could always not take that job and look for something $$$ier. I personally know some full time students that work at CF jobs that start at $13 an hour, and some pros that work at salaried gigs that equate to about $70 an hour. Depending on what project you're working on, who you're working for, and your talent/productivity level, your pay will vary wildly. In pretty much every industry and career on Earth. That's just life my friend. If you find that you're not earning as much as you'd like, upgrade yourself. Education, work ethic, a focus on technique. The world is your oyster and so forth!
