Please remember that we do not get paid when we are off sick, we do not get paid for holidays, we do not get shift loading, we do not get annual leave loading, we do not get super, we are not entitled to get income protection, quite often there are no occupation health and safety protection......now tell me that wls are overpaid?
We also only get paid when we actually see a client, and if we work for a parlour or agency, we only get paid 40-50% of what the client has paid, if we work for ourselves, we have all our own business overheads to pay regardless if we have work or not, we do not get paid for the time we spend answering emails, dealing with phone enquiries, etc etc which can all take up hours each and every day.
As a small business owner we have to factor into our hourly rate all of the above.
Some clients think ladies are seeing 10 plus clients a day each and every day and thats rarely true. I see perhaps 4-5 clients per month.
So no I dont think wls are overpaid, in fact many are grossly underpaid for the services they provide.
