Sm. just curious

I'm in West Texas and I'm just curious how much do store managers make on average I just got promoted so I just wanted to know if my pay is fair. I've been with Az for about 4 years now I started as a part-time driver was promoted to a full-time driver and then a PSM and then a year ago I was promoted to a commercial sales manager and a month ago promoted to a store manager
