    anyone who'd be willing to share....especially those of you who are
    paying others, like apprentices and trained assistants. the
    information I am looking for is what is the going rate, hourly wage
    for a jeweler with a Revere education, and several years experience
    working as assistant to a highly skilled goldsmith, as well as years
    experience with your own business? I'd love to hear numbers from as
    many of you as I can. why? well, that describes my experience. I'm
    off to Revere in a week; and was incredibly discouraged when having
    just been offered a job as a result of the education I am about to
    pursue, to be told it's basically worth minimum wage in this area.
    which I find very hard to believe, that I could make more in a retail
    job, as a waitress. now I know you people will set me straight.
    coming fresh from revere, but with years experience previous, what
    can I realistically hope/expect to find? (consequently, looking for
    a position in the near future....)
