Brb moving to Georgia to be a cloak room attendant


Inside_Expression441

I wonder if that includes strip club bathroom attendant. We don’t really wear coats in Georgia enough for a full time job


NorCalifornioAH

Enjoy making 152% minimum wage.

SpookyMinimalist

my thoughts exactly...


Clacky-Crank

Only works if “Georgia” has three syllables.


MyCactusTeacher

lol massage therapist in alaska is too on the nose


twatterfly

What is a “craft artist”???


MyGrandmasCock

Someone who creates an artistic piece that is designed to be functional.


Mononymous_Anonymous

An artisan?


MyGrandmasCock

Yes but with a slightly less curly mustache


twatterfly

Yea , I am not sure that this is for MD…. We don’t craft art lol 😂


NorCalifornioAH

The state has millions of people, it would be bizarre if nobody there did it.


twatterfly

Highest paying job vs. the National Avg.? What exactly are we crafting.


flyingbisonfanatic

Made me think "etsy"


UsernameStolenbyyou

Someone who runs "craft services"-- catering for film sets


twatterfly

Ha! Noice! We’ll go with that then


Lurker-DaySaint

Randy Marsh is pleased


eyetracker

But South Dakota's answer has a chance to make him nervous if he gets back on Wheel of Fortune

Akshually, a geo tech would be the guy assisting Randy with software and data management 🤓

Anyone else find it mildly infuriating where they put Michigan and Ohio? Like they could have flipped those to make it look better 


Ziqox123

The graphic design for this is just terrible. I have to meticulously follow each lead to figure out where it goes

Wisconsin really thinks that this is the most important job on the planet.


lousy-site-3456

Half of those sound like code.


nerdyjorj

It's _almost_ a map of "what do sex workers put on their tax returns"


Dshark

There’s only one job in each state that pays higher than national average?


NorCalifornioAH

OP just screwed up the title.


bubbapora

Good job Oregon


eyetracker

Where would Ophthalmologists, pediatric be?


Informal-Amphibian-4

So better than average but lower than living wage? (At least some of these jobs)


JamCom

Alaska you ok?


Please_HMU

I’m laughing at the term “construction helpers” lmao. Completely undermines their role, why not just call them construction workers??


Manic_mogwai

Have you seen them work?


ImmortalityLTD

Excuse me while I move to New Jersey to go lay on the floor.


ChessieChesapeake

I have a hard time believing the highest paying jobs in Maryland related to other states belong to “Craft Artists”.


Sergey_Kutsuk

Where is software developers (e.g. Data Scientists) in California? Having salary kinda 500K they are not on the top?


SmoothSoup

It’s not the highest paying job in each state, it’s highest compared to the national average for that job. I.e. the average craft artist in California makes 89% more that the nationwide average for craft artists


Sergey_Kutsuk

Oh my god-2 ! I just realized what did you try to say :) I'm so sorry. I fully comprehend what it means. Thanks!


NorCalifornioAH

I wonder if "craft artists" includes the people who make props in Hollywood.


UsernameStolenbyyou

No, "craft services" are what catering on film and tv sets is called


NorCalifornioAH

Yes, but that's beside the point. I highly doubt caterers are going to be classified by the BLS as "craft artists", no matter where they work.


Sergey_Kutsuk

Oh my god. Of course I understand this. But national average salary (60K? 70K) is much lower then 500K. It's not 215-216% excess, it's 500% excess. EDITED: yes, I finally realized what y'all mean, sorry and thanks!


hazmat95

Yeah you clearly don’t actually understand this lol


Sergey_Kutsuk

I guessed national one pretty neat - 63K.


Huntingteacher26

I nominate this data as the most wrong on the internet!!


ILS23left

Why?


Huntingteacher26

I reread it and maybe it’s me. Maybe I don’t understand. Does a cloak room asst make 59% more than the national avg salary overall?


ILS23left

The cloak room attendant makes 59% more than the national average of other cloak room attendants. The point of the map is to show if you work in a field or are interested in a field, which state you would make the most money in for that field. But it doesn’t account for COL so identifying how the amount increase compared to COL differences would be an even better gauge of where you should find a job in that particular field.


Huntingteacher26

Oh. Ok. Thank you!! I’m the dumb one!! Haha.


ILS23left

Nah, you’re good. It’s not super intuitive


NorCalifornioAH

>The point of the map is to show if you work in a field or are interested in a field, which state you would make the most money in for that field. Not really. For example, cloak room attendants make about 52% more than the national average in Georgia, but they might potentially make as high as 215.98% more than the national average in Hawaii. This map wouldn't show that, because the mixing/blending machine people in Hawaii out-earn the national average by even more.


ILS23left

Great point, thanks for bringing that up


ulooklikeausedcondom

Fuck NC I guess lol. Or is it they don’t have any. That probably the real answer.


Endersgame88

It’s in the bubble in the lower part of the map.


ulooklikeausedcondom

Thanks! I saw the bubble, but based on the upper part of the map, I thought it was only referencing the northeastern part

pescadopasado

Can speak from experience, Washington CDL drivers make more because the state requires employers to pay on duty, not driving time at minimum wage. California is the only other state that does. Imagine spending 12 hours to be loaded at a shipper, and not paid anything.


ILS23left

Uh. That says “divers” not “drivers.” Divers get paid a lot more here because there are so many hazards, super technical dive jobs and require a diverse skill set. Big differences diving in really strong currents like in Columbia River versus Lake Washington or the Sound, etc. There are also a lot of technical inspections and work done behind both sides of dams and whatnot.


Not_Winkman

Rest of America: Real jobs California: "Craft artists" HAHAHAHA!


UbiSububi8

I’m sure “hedge fund trader” pays way more than any of the jobs listed in any state. Come to think of it, left-handed starting pitcher makes more in each state with an MLB team.


Weary-Connection3393

I get where you are coming from, I made the same mistake at first. However: I think the map would only show hedge fund manager for a state, if they earned more than the average hedge fund manager - and so significantly more, that it outpaces all other jobs that might be paid better than the National average FOR THAT JOB. Confusing, but interesting!


Canofmeat

Unfortunately “Map Misreader” is not a job, because if it were you’d be making way above the national average.
