A minutes reflection about supply and demand suggests that it is not 
surprising that the first few jobs created after a prolonged recession 
don't pay very well.  Right now we have a buyer's market for labor and 
it is holding salaries down.  As someone who has subsisted for the last 
two years on short-term contract work (and not much of that) I am ok 
with the idea of getting a regular paycheck first and then worrying 
about how big it is later.
