Their rent is considerable less, the cost of our granddaughter's school is mush less than Baltimore daycares...it is all relative.

She knew about the wages when they decided to move. She also knew her daughter would get a better education here than inside the Baltimore City School District. It is safer, cleaner, warmer, friendlier and an all around better environment for all of them. My son-in-law is actually making more money than he has ever made in his life.

My stepdaughter has applied for other jobs within TV while employed at her current position. She is looking to improve herself financially and started wanting to climb the chain, so to speak. Her supervisor knows about it and has never said a negative word. She only gives her encouragement.

The last time she talked about a job opening and applying, her supervisor asked her to please stop looking for another job. She told her that she was putting it in the budget to send her to school so she can move up in her current department and make more money.

BK...it is sad...the State of Florida is ranked 46th in teacher pay!
