The University of Miami Job

The good news is that I got an offer for the job at the University of Miami yesterday. The bad news is I didn't take it. The pay was too low (1/2 of what I'm making now) for us to even consider it. Julie's main criteria for moving to Florida is she doesn't want to go back to work. She wants to be a stay-at-home mom for a few years, and I don't blame her. So I had to make the call today and turn it down. It sucked. The folks at U of M seemed like very nice people and (probably) would've been a great team to work with. Oh well, life goes on. Maybe in a few years when Julie is working again. Nothing against U of M, it's their pay structure that needs work. It must be tough to get highly qualified developers with such a low pay scale.

Now Julie and I are questioning the move to Florida. We really want to get out of our house - it's a tri-level and Abbie's going to be crawling soon. So I think we're going to put our house on the market. If I still don't have a gig in Florida by the time we sell it (could take a while) - we'll just buy our next house here. Of course, this plan sounds great to Julie while the weather in Colorado is nice. I'm willing to bet that she'll sing a different tune in October. ;-)

I know what you mean. I just started a new job at the University of Arizona Library. I wasn't thrilled about the pay, but considering the fact that I didn't have a job and need to pay my mortgage I took it. These guys are great to work with and it is teaching me a lot about libraries that I never knew. Pay is something that comes up a lot here, I think the bottom line is, people that want to work at a University will, those that can't afford to do that don't. I think it's unfortunate that places like that that so need good developers don't get them becuase they can't afford them.
