Peter: every rivet installed by hand...

Mike L.: With time-and-a half for overtime.

Peter: 13th Oct 2009 - 02:09 GMT

i had a job like that once. not riveting, but working a job i hated just to get that time-and-a-half overtime and double overtime.

lets see... the opened in 1903... the average wage was 22 cents an hour, or about $200-400 a year. riveters probably didnt even make that much. imagine doing heavy labor for about $1 a day?

some interesting facts about 1903:
