You left SF and made less money?

I find the wages in my area are the same as Cali. SE Michigan FYI.

But I agree about quality of people. Very few are talented, however that is enough to get me through my personal projects.

Why do you say that? As somebody that was briefly looking for a job in SE Michigan, I found the salaries much lower (even with COL taken in account)

Why do I say that?

That is my experience. Current pay 55 an hour, opportunity for 59 an hour.

Bring on the downvotes.
