Below is an example of a typical pay check.
Hourly rate $12.00 per hour
Weekly hours worked 40
Total hours worked per period 80Gross agent earnings due ($15.50 x 80 hours) $960.00
Gross earnings less the$ 25.00 agent staffing fee $935.00
Net pay check (less $19.95 client service fee) $915.05
Total monthly income (2 x $915.05) will be $1830.10*
In this example your Annual Income would be $21961.00. if you add in the cost of commuting in your vehicle. Gas and maintenance (annual estimated cost of $6,512.00), lunches @ $5 per day = $1,300.00 annual; this does not include Starbucks, which could add another $5 per day! That alone would be $9,112.00 per year never mind the cost of daycare which could add anywhere from $8000-10,000 per year.
