In fairness, this is a website for hobby lockpickers... so, no: most of us don't get paid anything to play with locks.

(In reality, a bunch of us actually end up spending a bunch of money on this hobby for tools, locks, etc.. I'd hate to calculate my actual cost/hour for the amount of free time I end up picking, given my limited free time lately...) :wink: :lol:
