In Reply to: You don't need a CMT - what you DO need is a - NEW EMPLOYER! - (nm)

What I'm seeing though is "must be willing to obtain CMT", CMT preferred, and all that kind of stuff. Interestingly, I got my social security statement in yesterday and it showed the yearly pay I've received since I started working in 1977, and I made more in the 90s than now, even though I've acquired new skills and done so much more.  It's really disheartening that the pay keeps going down down down.  As a QA person, I absolutely will not work for 3-4 cpl.  I've been a supervisor over people working by the line and they just push reports through to try and make a living and management just doesn't wise up and pay a decent salary.  For what we all have to know, it's just absolutely ridiculous.
