      Man... sounds a lot like someone was running a methlab out of the server room.

          The FDA is currently confiscating everything of value at work.

          Most of you know I've been thinking about another job for a long time already, well, guess what!

          My immediate plan is to incorporate my name as an LLC, so I can do some consulting work. I'd appreciate a heads up if any of you know of a good full time position.

          Sorry you're in this kind of situation man. Idk where you are located but If I hear of anything opening up in NJ I will definitely let you know. The down side is you'd most likely live in NJ.

                No meth lab. Sorry, I'm not that much fun! Tho we have had like 5 meth labs get busted in Killbuck, OH now.

                Nope, just more FDA acting badly, standard par for the course so far as that's concerned.

                            Yeah... but you went to NJ. Out of the frying pan, into the fire, as they say 🙂

                                  Hopefully easy question for you all: Looking at a couple jobs currently, wanting to get an idea of the salary range I should be looking at.

                                  Seattle, WA - UNIX/Linux System Administrator

                                  Columbus, OH - Local IT Generalist

                                  These are both current openings at the company my brother-in-law is working at, so hopefully a good reference to get in.

                                    UNIX in Seattle, should start around $85K for a junior, head towards $200K for a senior.

                                    Generalist in Columbus: Should start no less than $300K for having to be in crappy Columbus.

                                      Most important thing is that it is not NJ.

                                            How is the cost of living in, say, Seattle? Would $85k - $200k make for a nice living or still squeaking by paychech-to-paycheck?
