SHOALS LOVER: Your post is filled with the "statement" that is standard for SEDA. Based on what FACTS? An average of which groups. Does anyone at the various Anderson companies make an average of $9.00 an hour if not in management? How about the multitude of retail establishments on Cox Creek and Florence Blvd. Qouting the report you did was like believing in THE GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN and was written with about the same amount of REAL data. After all everything in it came from SEDA and the Chamber of Commerce, the main two groups who have fiddled while Florence and the Shoals area burned
The jobs he listed, have got to be union scale. I work in construction and those trades make no where near those scales..... ask someone from Tim Rhodes Elec, or Irons Elec. Didnt see pipefitters or plumbers scales there... but your everyday tradesman makes alot less per hour than those scales. LOL and yeah, the ones operating SEDA and your local COC are the ones making the money.... not your general labor. We wait in this area for them to bring in jobs? We'll starve to death first.
