First year post-grad! Pay is 1500 USD/month but it's nice getting paid to study, I suppose. Also doing TA too.

I own a small business consulting firm that the serves tech and energy industries. Generally, pay is good in consulting. Owning a company can be risky financially - we've had good years and bad years.
I do GIS, which is basically computer mapping, for an energy company. Because we work in the energy sector, we're unionized with the electricians and with that we have a fantastic pay scale and benefits. USD I make ~$70k/yr
I'm in technical presales. I go with salespeople and explain the IT infra, services and cybersecurity we sell. Should be $190k+ this year.
Sheeeeeeesh
I tend to watch some Thai series (mostly on Netflix), so I find these numbers interesting.
I think that this salary is considered to be quite high for Thai standards, but knowing the prices, does not allow for lavish luxuries like expensive sports cars.
How long do those 15 episodes take to film generally?

Nice try fbi
Do you do one episode a year or one season of 15 episodes?
I assume you're pretty well off considering you are in Thailand where living costs are relatively lower?
Thai dramas don’t usually have seasons. It’s just 1 show of ~15 episodes. I do 1 show. It’s great money but nothing like the top in big industries such as the US, China, S Korea, Japan, etc.

An odd combination of IT + offshore + electronics. 90% of the time this boils down to the same answer as @Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world
Being half naked and drunk is not a career inhibitor.
It pays enough that I neither know nor care about egg prices, and yet I always have a carton or two 8n my fridge which is frequently restocked.
tech. decent. used to be pretty good. can still be pretty good but its pretty striated now with shit jobs, decent level, and quite nice.
