Below are current Cut-off Wages for computer specialists from the New York State Department of Labor. These are not some extravagant rates. These are rates that the NYS DOL considers so low that if you are unemployed and someone offers you work below this rate, you can refuse the job without losing your unemployment insurance. Needless to say, nobody with a brain will work for cut-off wages, these are just examples of absolute rock-bottom rates. 
 
Occupation Cut-off Wage 
Computer Programmers $31.77 
Computer Software Engineers $35.79 
Computer Support Specialists $24.30 
 
The above hourly rates are for full-time work. For less than 40 hours/week, the rates have to be proportionately higher. For example, if you are a "Computer Programmer", the hourly cut-off wage is $31.77 but the corresponding yearly wage is $74,626.00. 

...

Sincerely
Rada Lapsker
