    Not really no. 600 might be attractive to me now but out in work there is more to it than money, lots of benefits etc and a rising pay salary.

    i never knew they got paid. it bothers me now. they should be paying me that much a day to show up. all i`ll get out of this degree is 40 years of office work anyway.

    well what year apprentices are they?
    And they get paid because they dont spends all their time in college, most of the apprenticeship is actually spent working, like a dog.
    When I was a first year apprentice it annoyed me that college students and those on the dole got more than me, I think they deserve to be annoying you for a bit:D

    Have to agree with badabinbadaboom here. If anyone isn't happy with what they'll get out of their degree then maybe you should have rethought your CEO choices...

    This aged well.

    Yeah the FAS students would be getting 600 a week in Phase 6.

    A lot of water has flown under the bridge since this post, It used crack me up back in 2002 when i was a student that apprentices were making a fortune.


    about 900 a week a qualified spark can make now.


    None the less, looking back it was an immature thread to start!
