If you’re in maine I’d recommend, with your background in bio, trying to work in a lab setting (jackson lab is what I’m familiar with) you can work your way up there pretty quickly if you try to some sort of research project management position after being a research assistant. It’ll probably start around 22 an hour (but you could probably qualify for higher if you sell some experience in college as wet lab experience, but after a few years youd be able to translate into a 65-70k/year job in project management, then that is transferable to a lot of different places for much more money once you have that experience.

Good luck out there, wish we payed teachers a higher salary.

FTFY.

Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

  • Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.

  • Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Beep, boop, I'm a bot

I originally applied for JAX when moving here, but they only had entry level $18/hr positions.

My concern was that MDI is impossible to find a place to live near. Housing was a nightmare when looking, has that changes recently?
