A southerner's first impressions of Jersey

[AUguy]

I actually asked for this area. Last year I told them I wanted to go to the Northeast and the assholes sent me to Maine. But I got there after the cold weather.

I'm sorry, how many crack rocks did you say you smoke a day?

Monetarily it should be a good move. Damn sure better be anyway.

Yes monetarily you will make a lot more than you could in Alabama but what you probably don't realize is that a majority of your hard-earned dollars will go towards paying taxes, car insurance and real estate taxes... The cost of living in NJ is extremely high, the tri-state area is just that: expensive.....take it from someone who has lived in Jersey almost all his life, and can't wait to make the move to NC (as soon as the real estate market picks up a bit).

I will only be in NJ for a total of 4.5 months so they will only get me for income tax nothing else. I am not a resident and my company is paying my housing.

Also I hit the road this morning headed back for bama so enjoy your snow storm folks
