Wages and Job titles

Hey everyone. I had a question about wages. My company has been known to undercut people for years on wages. i'm 20 years old and I really like programming these machines. So i will stick with it. Also, because i am new, i am ok with what they are paying me. I make $18.19/hour with less than a full year of experience. My company does yearly "Cost of living" raises. But nothing other than that. They can undercut people because of the job titles they give people. My job title isn't "CMM Programmer", It's "QA Technician". Like i said, i don't really care what im getting paid right now, because its paid experience in the field.

What would fair ranges of pay be for these fields
-- 0 to 3 years--
-- 3 to 5 years--
--5 to 10 years--
--10 years +--

I don't really wanna know what you guys are making, i just wanna hear some ranges.

If you don't wanna comment, then dont

Thanks.

Considering a WAL-MART store I know was starting people at $20.00 that seems low. I am totally disagreeing with post above..... I think 99% has to do with JOB MARKET. You in a major area with a lot of job opportunity ? Wages are way better because you have options.... Small po-dunk town with a CMM..... You may think they would value talent but where else are you going...NOt saying its right but it might be closer to reality than work experience....lets say it took me quite a few years of CMM programming at new job to get back to CNC setup rate I was at in Major Metro market. Factor in medical I may be even now.....

I buy Agri-Fab schtuff . The lawn roller, 30 gallon sprayer and small seed/fertilizer spreader I have is made by them. The s[reader is freaking old and still works pretty good. I want a bigger seed spreader though, I used it this year to broadcast my food plots and I had to refill it 4 times. I'm thinking the 185# spreader is the way to go next year.
