What's Wrong With this Picture?

[Guest guest]

I just saw an ad for a Texas ambulance company (a good company by the way)

that is advertising for EMTs and paramedics with salaries ranging from

$12-$15 per hour (but with benefits). Sadly, I pay my yard guy, with a

fourth grade education and limited English skills, $10-$12 per hour

(depending on the complexity of the work he is doing). This is just not

right.
