Nope Nope Nope NOPE!

All the experience and all the tools that are listed below and you're only valuing the work at $19 an hour as a low range and $20 as a high range? What happens - do you start at $19.50 / hour and then get rewarded for being a 'rockstar candidate' by getting a 50 cent raise up to $20 / hour?!? What a BOGUS (!!!!!!) situation!!
