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.

You need to get out of your shell if you think that.

Coming from the Dominican Republic and Haiti I am pretty sure I have gotten out of my shell.

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?

I'm actually looking for that right now. I'll know for sure once I talk to my family after they get home tonight, that 3 hour time lag can be just slightly annoying.
Edit: Anywhere in the country is going to be more expensive than the area I'm currently located in. So if I'm going to be unemployed for a bit, this is the place to be at least

For sure.
Around here, $85k/year would make for a nice salary in the DFW area, but also know that some areas can get pretty expensive for common essentials, such as rent or electricity, etc.
For me, key indicators are a gallon of gasoline and a gallon of milk.

While these are definitely to good indicators, personally I've moved almost exclusively to the cost of housing. How much will a cost/apt cost in the area you want to be in? That is what helps set your baseline. That and taxes.
A gallon of gasoline might be $1/gal more in NYC, and milk might be $0.50/gal more, but that doesn't even come close to telling you that the average person can't live in a nice part of town because a shit whole in the nice part of town cost half a mil to start.
