See there is the attitude that gives our industry a bad reputation. If you are a top notcth installer then you will get paid enough to make you happy and content. I dont think installers ever see the big picture. Your employers have to pay employee state tax, liability insurance, employee medical benefeits, overhead, vehicle insurance and payments, the list goes on. This is what will be the decline of the custom industry the hungry installer just looking around the corner to make fast quick cash, and never sticking around for the long haul and help in building a business that is sucessful for many years. You want it all and you want it now. A company will always sink being held hostage by their employees.
