Last summer I was restoring a Raleigh Super Grand Prix so I went to a local bike shop to get the parts and was assisted by the store owner. While checking out we got to talking, he said he had a hard time finding a good mechanic. He then asked if I knew how to service headsets, bottom brackets, hubs, etc. I said yes, yes and yes. He then offered me a job. Now, I am not uneducated, I clean-up well and am currently employed so when I asked how much per hour I expected to hear something reasonable. His offer? $11.00 per hour, no benefits..... ooookay
