It is a fulltime job. They have it listed as PT so they don't have to pay for your medical benefits. FT employees have paid medical coverage, so that's why. You'll be working FT hours trust me. lol

We have volunteer groups Tuesday-Sunday, & a special needs group in on Mondays. Our hours are 8-4:30....Vegeta

Well, that's a pretty good salary considering what you'd actually be doing. But if you don't like it, that's your choice, you have all the necessary information....Vegeta
