  Greetings listees from a confirmed lurker,

  I've got to respectfully disagree about the discussion of the low =
salary offer at MSU.  If my health insurance premiums (self-employed, =
two people, no kids) of $1,300 dollars per month were paid by MSU, AND =
they contributed towards my retirement, AND they gave me paid vacations =
AND they paid for professional development seminars AND they provided =
affordable educational opportunities for my wife and me, I would =
consider myself very fortunate, indeed.  The grass is always greener =
somewhere, but I think there is a bigger picture to consider.  Yes, =
piano technicians should have higher incomes; but factor those state =
benefits into the pot and you'll have a different picture. =20
