How does your paycheck stack up?

To help answer that, the state Employment Security Department looks at averaged, annual salaries by job throughout the state. A few things to note:

The numbers in the slideshow are for the Seattle-Bellevue-Everett area. The numbers were released in late 2014 and are based on 2013 wages and estimates.

Annual salaries are based on an averaged hourly rate, times 40 hours a week. But many people, especially those in low-paying jobs, do not work full-time at a single job. So a salary for a cashier, for a example, might be lower than what's listed.

Self-employed people and military workers are not included in the numbers.

The slideshow features the most common local jobs. To see more info and all jobs tracked by the state, go here.
