Perhaps the biggest way that the president influences the departments and agencies of the executive branch is through his appointment powers. The president has the authority to fill the most critical positions within executive departments and agencies with the people he thinks will best implement his agenda. But this authority is not absolute; the Senate is authorized to confirm these appointments.
Unsurprisingly, Google Sourcers are earning an obnoxiously high amount. The average hourly contractor there is looking at $47.30/hr, while the salaried tech sourcer enjoys a range of $76-116k. There appears to be a pretty wide range for sourcers, from either $22/hr to $33k a year, all the way above six figures.
Re: Labor Rates Per Hour. Your hourly rate should be based on how much you pay your employees plus overhead and other markups. It isn't unreasonable to charge a 75% labor overhead and a 33% labor markup for painters in Texas. An employee making $15.00 per hour would be charged out at $31.20 per manhour. job I bid this week and got for a painter that I estimated the job for used a 10% material overhead and a 15% material markup. Generally you can get more per hour in residential repaints than you can in new commercial construction in Houston.
