| 00:48.09 | scott | Utah might be lower.. |
| 01:02.31 | brailsmt | scott: where do you get your numbers? and is that for CS or other technical degrees? |
| 01:02.59 | scott | for CS, I've seen it on various google searches |
| 01:03.15 | scott | what'd they offer ya? |
| 01:04.48 | brailsmt | scott: a bit more than that... |
| 01:05.20 | brailsmt | still under $40k/yr, though |
| 01:08.10 | scott | sounds pretty normal |
| 01:10.52 | scott | how much ya want? :) |
| 01:15.02 | JoshH | brailsmt: its not too bad to start at and get some experience |
| 01:15.14 | JoshH | cause high paying jobs require lots of it |
| 01:18.08 | hans | Jayce^: ping |
| 01:23.03 | brailsmt | scott: oh, i figured i would be getting someting in the range of 42-45k/yr |
| 01:23.48 | markl_ | Jayce^: hey what's happening |
| 01:23.51 | brailsmt | several salary reporting sites (ie, more than one) say that is fair market value... and the dates of surveys are 2001 |
| 01:24.10 | brailsmt | so they don't include huge .com boom unmbers |

| 01:42.36 | scott | you have to realize that the salary in Utah is considerably less than in many other places |

| 01:43.30 | scott | it's way cheaper to live here than in cali, seattle, etc. |
| 01:43.55 | scott | so if you take into effect cost of living, you might actually be making a 45k sallary in one of those places |
| 01:43.57 | brailsmt | scott: but your housing costs are oo high |
| 01:44.04 | brailsmt | s/oo/too |
| 01:45.06 | brailsmt | cost of living here (Kansas City, MO) is about the same as Utah with the exception of housing, which is roughly $20-30/k less (for a typical starter home) |
| 01:45.44 | brailsmt | and you can thank the mountains in Utah for restricting the real estate available for residential housing for your higher home costs |
| 01:45.47 | brailsmt | :) |
| 01:46.44 | scott | oh, I thought you lived in Utah. I meant Utah was cheap :) |
| 01:47.18 | scott | a simple online salary calculator says a 35k salary in american fork utah = 49k in seattle. |
| 01:49.09 | scott | is that kansas city missouri? (not familiar with the state symbol..) |
| 01:49.31 | scott | if so, it says that 35k in kansas city is equivalent to 50k in seattle |

| 02:18.40 | goozbach | usually there's a field in the setup webpage that has an entry for such a change. |
