Hi all,

I have recently been offered a job in NYC in the financial district for 130K per year plus a 10K bonus each year and benefits. I am just unsure of the feasibility to do well in NYC on that salary. I have never been to NYC so all this potential change seems daunting. I would know no one in the city and am not even sure where a area to live is nice for how much money that is.. I would want to rent a nice 2 bedroom and not commute from to far away.

First question is how hard will it be to have a nice place and organic markets nearby etc.. or is this impossible on those kind of wages in NYC? I am kind of scared to take the job.

Where are the nice places to live in the area?

UPDATE: Thank you all so much for helping me. I am no longer looking to relocate.

I just persuaded a Independent Romney voter to vote for Obama!!! My Delivery guy bringing me some food asked me who I was voting for and why. .I told him how when I was 8 years old I became a diabetic. And up until Obama I could not buy insurance and had to rely on my employer. I told him of my concern if Obama loses and Romney takes the white house. That I would lose my ability to buy insurance except for high cost Cobra for 3 months. He thought about it for a second and said.. I have a prexisting condition too. hmm you changed my mind. I am voting for Obama on Tuesday!!!!!! I live in Florida and approve this message. :)

A few weeks ago I ran into a web video of MN officers (thank you Tim Pool of OWS Streaming fame) in a program called the Drug Recognition Evaluator program. It showed about 35 disturbing minutes of state troopers and sheriff’s deputies apparently asking people on the street to go with them to be part of this program. During the program it appears on the video that people go there not under the influence but come back high or otherwise impaired. I was disturbed being an X addiction professional thinking what are they doing.. It seems a health hazard to offer drugs to people outside of a clinical setting and then after your done just let them out on the street impaired. Furthermore they were dropping them off at the occupy movements area which I thought was a poor practice with possible political motives. I contacted AL Frankens office as well as the DEA and the State attorney’s office in MN where the film was shot. Well the short of it is they have suspended the program. I just thought the story deserved an update.

This week, the "fine" folks of the Orlando Police Department under the Authority of the Orlando city council arrested three folks from the Orlando Chapter of Food Not Bombs charity for feeding the poor. The ordinance was passed in 2005 and has been challenged in Court. All attempts to rectify the matter in the courts have failed for charity's. This effectively bans the feeding of groups of people more than 25 in number. The reasoning is it attracts homeless in the area which hurts businesses. I say fuck those businesses in Orlando that are heartless and helped create the ordinance which makes people hungry. Beneath the the fold I will list numbers to contact to voice displeasure and will start compiling a list of resources you can donate to such as the Orlando group that has been brave enough to feed them (organic vegetarian food) anyway. This Ordinance has been in effect since 2005.. enough is enough will you help me put pressure on the city of Orlando by boycotting them? Will you help by calling them and telling them why? I will list area businesses and phone numbers to contact to tell them why they will not get your business any longer till the ordinance is changed. Why your vacation will not be to Orlando the place where the poor starve in Eola park?
Please share this on Facebook and Twitter etc.
What got me invested in this issue.

Their is a humanitarian crises in Libya and I have an idea to share. I will keep it short. I am a nobody but care deeply for all people. I cannot stand the thought of a child in Libya not having medicine or food and would love to help raise money to get them aid. Not only would it be a good thing to do but it would show the world that Americans care about what is going on in that nation on a human level. That we are not content to sit back and just play video games, watch TV and shop.

Could any of you who may know Oprah or someone famous float the idea to them? I have no kind of contacts beyond my 2 cats. I work from home and spend 99 percent of my time alone. But I want to with my small voice reach out and let them know they are not alone and that we care for and about them and want to be their friends and send them medicine, food and other things that may help them in this time of need. We could also be aiding boarder refugees by this.. Come on please someone. Kieth Olberman? You Around? Bill Mahler? Andreana? Rachael? Perhaps some singers or even John Stewart?

I know this is not a proper diary its just an idea.. I think it would help the Middle east to know we care for them as humans and friends. KK please do not flame me.

I wrote this in my disdain for the Corporate ownership of our government. And the supreme court who have destroyed the strength of the people it used to represent. Our Congress bought and paid for by greed and the supreme court enshrining and cementing there ownership of government. Our voices weak and muted with millions of corporate cash.. Here is my first poem.. not a grat one for the group.
