if it wouldn't be close to a 50% pay cut I wouldn't mind moving down there. I could be like a modern day Anvil Welch, but probably more like my guy Craig Hull.

 

What is opening pay? Got to be $27,000 to $30,000 annually.

 

I am guessing $27,000 would be tops.

 

That's barely more than I make here, which is hard for me to believe.

 

Isn't that a CNHI paper and if so, isn't CNHI on perpetual furloughs?

 

There was a time when I might jump at this.

Too old and broken down now.

 

You or the newspaper?

 

Yes.

 

This one has been filled.

 

Depends on the paper...a couple of places have apparently been let off the hook and no longer do them. LUCKY BASTARDS.
