New Below poverty line

San Mateo County saw some of the largest price increases last month. The median price for an existing single-family house there jumped nearly 23 percent year-over-year to $718,000.

So - your company wants to pay 1/9 the median home price. I made more than that in home buying power as a pro rock n roller in Albuquerque. Plus, that job would get me laid on a regular basis.

For shame.

New Not my company.
Just a job that got sent to me that I'm completely unwilling to move for.

Since I've removed myself from the running for this position, as it were, I figured I might pass along the opportunity to someone else here.
