And your still going to make hardly enough to eat..
As I said one of my mates is a qualified experienced diver who knows all the companies here and is a known freelancer on the island for years.. He gets 1000 baht a day, only on days he works.. Starts before dawn.. Gets home well after midnight (so you needs break days to recover between gigs).. Also he has to provide all his own kit (which wears out, he got a wetsuit nicked recently so lost money on a few days work) also drives up to jumping off points (Khao Lak) on his own petrol. etc.
Basically its a hobby that gives him free diving and some occasional pocket money.. He has some rental apartments back home keeping him going, the reality is that diving has too many people who want to do it and if they need staff they can have a Thai with paperwork for 15k - 20k.
As a jobbing diver you can expect free diving and not much more IMHO.
