I'm researching the medical laboratory technician career and I'm seeing that the minimum starting pay is about $19/hour. This comes to a little over $39,000. Does this sound right? There are 261 working days in 2014 (including holidays). At $19/hour, that's $152 per day for working 8 hours per day. Multiply this by 261 days and you get $39,672.
