Hang out in mile end and the plateau, walk around old Montreal, nightlife is around St. Laurent St. People seems to like walking / shopping St. Denis and St. Catherine (the main drag). Eat a poutine, smoked meat sandwich (Schwartz is famous for this) and Montreal bagel (fairmont or st viateur). Great restaurant scene so it depends on what you like. Some of my favs are Joe Beef, Toqué, l' Express, Tiradito, tuck shop and Banquise (drunken poutine fun). Have a great time. Montreal is awesome.

Hi Fishes,

My wife is getting transferred to California from India and she is offered 143k.

How much she can get after tax deduction and all? How much she can save after all the expenses?

She is insisting that I travel with her and get the job in the US. I'm a software developer having 4.1 YOE. How much can I get in the US? Is it worth traveling with her?

Any information would be helpful, Thanks in advance...

In our 121 last we had a good discussion on creating a personal development plan, with the idea being I’d write down clear goals & action points to get from my current level to the next, and I’d provide weekly evidence of it. I prepped the doc accordingly, but instead of wanting to discuss it, he said I have 4 weeks to “turn things around” - without giving any new info on what I’ve done wrong - esp given I wrote my goals based on this same feedback from last week??
