Juan, nice try! San Diego county has higher mountains than all of the east coast, the highest peak in San Diego is higher in elevation than even Mt. Washington. If you your decision is really falling on skiing, then we have Big Bear, but I don't even know how this became about skiing. There is no Competition with illegals for jobs either unless you are a landscaper or house keeper. I've lived in both places, they are both great cities, but I prefer San Diego, there is more to do in San Diego than there is in Boston. Boston is a great city for history, but after two days of that what do you have? I think the cost of living is a tiny bit higher in San Diego, but Boston is not cheap. The weather in San Diego is normally great, little bit of rain today. San Diego has LA near by but there really is no need to go up there too often. Juan gave you nothing in Boston, he said go to New York and the mountains, nice try Juan!
Answered By: rosco_1976 - 10/30/2010
Actually I do not like either one of them. However, if I absolutely had to make a choice between them I would take Boston.
Reasons:
At least you can get out into the mountains to go skiing, and hunting during the winter:
Close to New so you can zip down and take in a play or concert
As far as food New England Lobster tastes a whole heck of a lot better that California Lobster.
Living in Boston you are well away from the border and the drug wars spilling over into the states
As far as work in Boston you are not going to be competing with illegal immigrates for jobs like you will be in San Diego.

About the only thing San Diego has going for it is the surf is better if you are surfer.
Answered By: JUAN FRAN$$$ - 10/29/2010
The fact that you are asking this/considering this comparison proves you have never been to San Diego,lol

It is also pretty obvious Juan has never been here either.


Oh well....whatever you decide you guys have fun w/ your 40 degree weather and the rain this/next week. lol

Since it's going to be around twice that here, excluding the odd chance of a firefight between the drug cartels I'm going to down to the bay tomorrow w/ my kayak and then charger game and a halloween party Sunday.

...I may need to bring a jacket for the evening, but we'll see

LMAO

doesn't care about stars glad he doesn't live in Boston (especially in the winter,lol)

I just graduated college and am moving to San Diego for a job. I want to live somewhere fun and everyone says Pacific Beach is the place to be. The problem is my job is in Poway. Is it unrealistic to live in PB and commute everyday? How long would it take with San Diego traffic? (how bad is it during morning rush hour) Also if you are familiar with the area is University City a fun place for a young person? It is a little closer to Poway. Thank you!

So today I went in for an interview and I was going in for the 2nd interview by the head chief executive. now this is where it got weird, so she asked me about my previous jobs and said how much she liked that product over that product. then she started talking about her daughter? an her divorce ...then how she didn't finish college because she was making more money doing what she did for this company ... then she talked about how her teenage daughter is a handful... I just played it cool thinking she was using some sort of psychology thing to trick me into saying something stupid. the interview ended and she seemed happy an I was escorted to the door... now I'm freaking confused? is this normal behavior for an executive? like it felt like she was going to burst into tears at one point and tell me her life problems... is this normal? was she trying to see how I react or something?

Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now.

Recently I have overlooked for a project at work and I am unable to accept it why? I am hard working, dedicated, maintain a very professional decorum, very cordial with my colleagues and bosses, give respect to one and all. Still people who take the p***, argue with managers, gossip mongers have been selected for some very responsible positions at work. I seriously can't get my head around it why, why unprofessional people who have no work ethics being selected over me, whereas I have a track record of excellent performance and never shy away from any work my manager ask me to do? I am at my lowest point and not getting hold of my manager to ask the question why not me, why them who can't even bother? I am feeling like a complete loser, giving years to this place, building my performance, trust and this is how I get rewarded. Why my life is so shit, anything I wish for turns to dust?

So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?!

I am currently a 1st year irregular college student taking I.T. I transferred schools and my majors never got credited. But it's okay because i am slowly getting the logics in programming in Java. This next semester i am taking a System Analysis and Design(SADSIGN) and i am getting nervous because even though i am pretty good at logics, i am not that good at coding. But since it is a case study, we will be on group, we will be four i think. Project manager, Analyst, Documentation, and the programmer. I am asking what jobs i can get after graduating I.T. because what if i graduated I.T. and still not that good at coding, i am hoping that there will be a jobs that will require less programming. Like Database manager or in Multimedia or in charge of Network. So is there jobs that doesn't require hardcore programming skills?
