      Median wage is about 20€/hr but it’s not in any way uncommon to earn way less than that. My SO makes about 12€/h assembling electrical switchboards and she used to make even less when working in daycare. 20€/h is considered a great wage. I dont think any of my friends earns that.

        But is that accounting for the difference in monetary value?

        1€ doesn’t = $1

        Well I’ll be a monkeys uncle… 1€ pretty much is = to $1. I must have been thinking about another currency
