Joe Plumber said he works 12 hours a day. Let's do the math.

[rateyes]

Let's assume he works, not 5, but 6 days a week. 6 x 12 = 72 hours per week.

72 hrs./week x 52 weeks/year = 3744 hours per year.

If Joe Plumber makes the $250,000.00 WORKING FOR SOMEBODY ELSE, then that means:

250,000/3744 = @ $67 an HOUR

I wish my employer would pay me $67 an hour. I doubt Joe's does.

1. $80 an hour if 5 days a week.

[kid a]

2. HAve you gotten a plumber bill lately - more like $100/hour

[endarkenment]

5. Unless he is self employed he is sharing that with the company

so 100/hr is not 100/hr for Joe, who by the way is only an alleged plumber and is not named Joe.

3. In fairness, it'd be more like $50 with overtime, but yeah. It'd be nice. n/t

[glowing]

4. If he's so hard working, what is he doing standing outside his house this AM

talking to t.v. crews and saying he just came from the gym? Sounds like an idiot to me and a liar.

[rateyes]

6. With the economy in the toilet, and the housing market imploding..

I doubt he's even employed.
