I was on some webpage at the studio the other day, dealing with plug-in upgrades or such, when I noticed Google was placing profiled ads in front of me. Ironically, as I was in a pro studio, most were trying to refer me to recoridng schools (a bit too late there...) but the real offense was the one above! "Audio Engineer Salary"? Fucking A. Like I needed to see that when I was dealing with studio upgrades and waiting to show the place to prospective clients. And all I could think of was some poor sap thinking, "Hey cool. I wonder what kinda big bucks these engineers make?"
Oh man. Oh well.
