Bottom line:  This position starts at $20 per hour . You will be paid as a contractor and have the opportunity to move up after a 90-day trial period.
There may also be room for advancement to a boot camp trainer supervisory position.

You will find me to be fair, respectful and appreciative.  You will be compensated fairly, treated fairly and be part of a winning team...and I will certainly look for ways to pay you more for your efforts if they warrant it.
