I was skimming through T5.09 and found an actual chart for monthly
salaries for quite a few jobs.
Page 696.
The average Citizen makes 250cr/month times the number of terms
they've been working
Soldiers 100cr x Rank
Marines 110cr x Rank
Ship enlisted 100cr x rank
Ship officers 200xr x rank
People working wages -
Unskilled to skill 1 : cr4/hour
Skill 1-2 : cr 6/hour
Skill 3-5 : cr 10/hour
Skill 5+: cr 14/hour
Rich world +25%
Poor world -25%
Industrial +50% (as overtime average +2 hours/day)
Professional workers : double rate (this includes Advocate/lawyer! and
Medical, Counsellor)
Hellworld: double pay for 1 year contract plus end of contract bonus
