the electricians around Ashburn, VA who service data centers get paid more than most of my network engineers. their boss got paid more than I did as a manager, if I believe the scuttlebutt they told us. hard work, on site -- i'm sitting pretty at home typing this -- and no real upwards growth, but there's big money in NoVA data centers and the tradesmen's pay reflects that.
