Re: right when we thought it was over...
Posted by I didn't say it was a bad place... on 4/05/08

    I didn't say it was a bad place but in the LONG TERM you will
    make more money, and your pay, benefits and job will be
    protected by the unions...you don't have to pay taxes on your
    car up here, would you rather start at $35,000 or $29,000 and
    pay a lot of taxes.....living in most parts of NC is not
    cheaper than living here, unless you live in the sticks...go
    visit the NC board and you will see that multiple times. Your
    fiance is a male, he'll get hired into a public school sooner
    than you think. NC is not bad, it's clean, beautiful, the
    people are a heck of a lot nicer than they are up here, they
    have caring teachers etc....BUT what's the most important
    things when it comes to a career....money, benefits, job
    security...you'll find there is much more of that here in all
    those categories. Well, job security is public schools at
    least, charter maybe...it all depends.
