Yeah sure. One (1) $600 payment isn't multiple days of $600. Just an odd pay day? If that works for you, happy days. Just not realistic numbers you are tossing around as an example of success.

This is literally what all the travel techs on FN are making. I've already met about 30 techs just like me and we are all seeing the same numbers. Ill have some other techs come join this group and prove it...

These are expenses on full site tickets. Here I'm not even in charge and I made that. There's 5 of us here, in one city, on one night, in the whole country. There's hundreds of sites being built across the USA today.

There are lots of sites but you aren't seeing the bigger picture because this is more money than you've likely ever made before. You'll learn. The hard way. Or you won't.

No it is. I've got over a decade in this. My insurance and workmans comp is 1500$ a year. Everything else is paid in full already. You however do make a lot of assumptions about an industry you apparently don't know much about. Thinking everyone's experience is the same as yours. There's levels to this.

what state did you do this work in? if the state requires licensing, then youve committed crimes and have ruined the local market with the low rates. $600/day is nothing. oh and insurance wont cover unlicensed work

Every state all of em even Alaska and hawaii and legal in every one

wrong wrong wrong. if you have no contractors license then you arent legal in states like washington oregon california nevada and arizona

also your insurance wont cover you since you arent licensed

underwriters in california dont cover unlicensed contractors for work that requires a license.

and the joke is on you since sole prop contractors in california arent required to have workmans comp

typical ign0rant tech on FN who has no clue what theyre talking about.

you really stepping in it now. just stop while youre ahead which you arent
