If you can make that start of cash at thebrick at entry level position, the guy hiring you must be making 150k or something?
Why do ppl bother with education anymore>?

3500 a month is 42k before taxes and 5k is 60k before taxes.......

If you cash in 3500, that means you have already paid your taxes unless you are paid in cash.
I did a job where i got paid 2600 a month...it was 42k PRIOR to tax. so pocketing 3500 is like 60k or so BEFORE you get taxed.

He just said on average an employee makes $4500 with decent sales, It kind of excites me to have money, ill be able to travel the world and by that go to tournaments to get my ass handed to me by X players and meet other TLers.

lol one of you is lying. Either your boss or you.


Its words from his mouth, and it just depends on how well you can use your time and sell Product, It is true that there are some people who work in just sales and make 6 figures.


yeah but they are not making that at the brick, thats for sure.

Yeah probably not, but a kid can dream and shit even if im making 2000 a month ill shit bricks, Pun intended ;D

There is no way a salesman at the brick is bringing home 7,000 before taxes each month. So he probably meant at most, $5000 before taxes, which puts you in a fairly high tax bracket, which further eliminates the money you actually take home.

I work construction, and make $6000 a month before taxes. They take usually around $1600 from that, which totally sucks.

I agree, Mostly because I live in this shitty smaller town in Canada. I was kind of mindblown to actually meet a person from TL where I live, When everyone is such a closet gamer.

my math skills are top notch. The question is whether 3500-5000 has to be taxed or not. I assumed not (as in its 3500 after tax). If it does, then you probably get taxed 30-35%, so you send up with a bit more than 2k a month. That is still pretty good for a job that doesn't need a degree.

I've heard that ppl who live in fort mcmurray or something (somewhere in alberta) can make like 20 bucks an hour at 7/11 cuz no one wants to be there.

Actually that was me. I registered a while back but don't post.

I know I made it sound like you are getting the job but it isn't 100% yet. I'll call you by Wednesday.
