Ehhh, while I would never dissuade someone from getting a degree but perhaps look at a more marketable skil as your major. Like business or communications.

Was about $10,000 all in to move from CA to WA in Spring 2022. I didn't factor in new furniture, then it's about $14,000.

I can tell from experience that to move a 1 bedroom apartment from CA to WA in Spring of 2022 cost $7,500, just for the movers and the truck. Not to mention the 1st and last month rent, getting out of my old lease, and other moving related expenses. Overall it was at least $10,000. If you factor in new furniture and household items it was about $14,000.

No, that’s why you’ve gotta save. Took me about 8k to move all told with security and first month, flights, shipping and buying furniture. To be fair though moving cross country had been my goal for a while.

True, but no restaurant will pay to relocate a server.

Unless you're corporate, no retail chain will pay to relocate you. Do you have a degree?

Entry level and paid relocation are going to be tough to find in this economy. Especially with work from home. What industry are you in?

Entry level. Paid relocation. 3rd or 4th most expensive place to live in the US depending on who you ask. This is probably not going to work out great for you.

Yeah exactly. They very well may be domestic terrorists. They can be charged with plenty, it's just the US doesn't have that legal criminal charge.

>Nah, it's pretty goddamn pedantic.
The conversation is "they're going to be charged with domestic terrorism," "no they won't, that's not a charge," "you're being pedantic." Frankly, it's pretty clear you don't know what "pedantic" means lol.
>Existence of a domestic terrorism charge or not, they're still catching federal charges for damaging four separate power substations, alleged in some weird plan to rob a business's cash register.
Yes? That has nothing to do with what I said. Idk what you think you're doing here.
>The point is there are way easier methods for robbing a cash register that don't involve a FBI investigation and federal charges.
Ok? Like yeah that's true, it's just irrelevant here. Some people are misinformed and think domestic terrorism is a criminal charge. Pointing out the fact of the matter is all I was doing. Nothing to get your panties in a twist about.

It's not pedantry, there's just no domestic terrorism charge. It's like if someone claimed there's a charge for murder in the 147th degree. Pointing out that no such thing exists and it's not a criminal charge is not pedantic.
