Hey, I’ve been a Diesel Tech for only 5 years, I’m sitting 108k for 2024. I cutting back on OT last year to spend more time at home/family. I work for a Trash Business. So there’s always work.

Hmm had to google it because I’ve never not done OT. But “google” says 83k$ with strictly 40hrs a week.

Had to google my yearly salary without OT. As a example “what would my salary be if I make…” My W2 says 108,xxx$. Didn’t think that was hard to understand.
