There are four different types
of businesses employing ser-

The wages of appliance ser.
vicemen are about $1400 per '
week and some highly skilled
men can earn up to $150 per
week.
One advantage of this job is
the fact that in times of econ.
omit recessions consumers
have appliances repaired rather
than replaced. A disadvantage is
the fact that new appliances gen.
