I know a police officer, they work in redwood city but have to live in petaluma to get enough space on their wage.
I can not imagine dealing with that commute each day. Each time I talk to him its in the back of my mind
Could work 3x12 with a 4x12 thrown in, meaning they only commute 3 times a week. they may also have a take home or shift change is outside of peak.
TBH I doubt the median eng salary, all levels combined, is $250k to begin with, it's got to be lower than the average, right? But I maybe I'm just not informed.
It's funny they mentioned police officers, because $250k is right about the median TC for a police officer in San Jose (just a regular officer, not including captains or detectives or deputy Chiefs)
