My grandparents and some friends lived in Westmoreland.

My coworker was thinking about moving to Florida from Lebanon County PA. He couldn't do it because the highest paying job he could find in the same field was a $ 17-hour pay cut.

Yeah I took a pay cut to move down there and when I moved up I was still 10 cents short of being equal at $20/hr. Moved back up here and within 6 months I was making $25 and currently making $27.50 and planning on getting a raise around summer when I get my crane license.

Nice! That's a good license to have.
