Okay, let’s tackle this. So Linda Settles has basic skills like Microsoft Office, which are in demand. She has experience as a server, which is entry-level. Leadership skills are also valuable, but not typically compensated at a high rate for servers. Location is Temple, Texas, which is a smaller city. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, servers in the US typically earn around $8–$12 per hour. Considering her skills and experience, I estimate her hourly rate to be around $12, on the higher end of the scale.
