Utility Locator in Klamath Falls, Oregon

12 months ago

Hello,

I am a newly hired Utility Locator and will begin my training in a few weeks. I know nothing about this field and I am being hired on at $11.00/hr. I have heard rumors that the pay for Utility Locators has gone down drastically since the economy crashed, and that pay used to be around $20-$22/hr. Does anyone think the pay will increase again after the economy turns around? Is this a good 'career' field? Is there anything else I should know? What do top earners get in this field? What opportunities for advancement are there?

Thanks for the help!
