Tons of jobs right now, and good paying ones too. The company I tried from has around 100 open positions they can't fill. Most starting well over $20/hr.

Rambo?

One of my most vivid college memories from KSC was getting shigellosis from the dining commons.

Your experience kind of surprises me because NH likes to view its manufacturing industry as quite robust. There are a lot of factories and machine shops in the state compared to its population.

I’m explicitly not even responding to your comments, so what’s the problem? Yeah, I’m pressing the sequence of keys, and then hitting send, but it’s not a response cuz I say it’s not.

You might as well have cited the onion. Use legitimate news sources, not right wing propagandists

Depending on your background, find a remote job. I used to drive two hours to Boston for work and two hours back every day for an office job. I got tired of it and said peace. Got a remote job and it’s been so much easier.

NH can be an expensive place to live for some, but compared to everywhere else I lived previously (and I’ve lived in 7 other states around the country), NH is very affordable for my husband and I. If you’re single, it might be difficult unless you’re bringing in decent income.

If you have a CDL, you can make some great money. Look into a trade if you have a background in one. Because this state is mostly rural, trade jobs are big, at least where I’m living in the Monadnock Valley region. Everyone I know is either a trucker, electrician, plumber, NHDOT, contractor, etc.

NH is one of the lowest states in terms of overall tax burden, but it also is one of the highest for cost of living. I’m surprised at the claim that there are no jobs-NH has reported a labor shortage like many other states. Like other posters have said-your job prospects are probably determined by your field. Based on my own experience, I can report that, holy crap this state needs tradespeople!

We have kind people, but not nice.

Plenty of jobs. What's your background and experience?

Go to the Indeed site and subscribe to your area of interest for job postings. I do this and I get a long list of postings every day.

I agree with your overall point, I just get tired of the "schools should teach how to do taxes" example being overused and oversimplified as some kind of magic key to unlocking an easy transition into adulthood.

Thats if your tax return is simple, once you get into self employment or Uber or any of the contractor jobs it gets more complicated. Also it’s just part of the point not the whole picture. The whole point is schools should prepare you better for life in general.

No job opportunities?

Look at all the hiring signs out now. We literally don't have enough people to fill jobs.

The whole "schools should teach how to do taxes" cliche is silly. It's the easiest thing in the world and sites like TurboTax or FreeTaxUSA hold your hand through every simplee step.

Post COVID, the #1 challenge for the majority of companies here is trying to hire staff. Healthcare, hospitality, education, etc = lots of jobs.

I wouldn't say nice people.

He sounds like a real Wildcat. But for reals, glad he’s safe.

Which leads me to ask…what did you receive for a grade on said marketing project?

NH has a median income of almost $78k while WV has the fifth lowest median income of roughly $51k.

NH also has the highest literacy rate in the United States…WV is in the bottom 16.

In regards to unemployment, according to labor stats as of DEC22, NH ranks at 2.9 (tied for 11th) compared to WV at 4.1…putting them tied for 40th.

so is it just a meme? I always see "low employment opportunities". Is it just Maine or something? Cuz Im p sure I saw it for vermont as well

Buying in NH is pretty rough and has been for a couple years. The intense furvor has died down but the pricing hasn't exactly relaxed.

I always recommend buying if you can unless you think you'll need to leave in less than 5 years.
