I freelanced in Austin for same day rate as SF but I did hear in general that wasn’t normal. But I loved it there, would take a big cut for full. Curious where, can you update when it’s over? (And good luck.)

If you like where you are, maybe point out how poorly you’re paid compared to other local shops? You want to stay but... However, don’t underestimate the value of a job you actually like.

After 4 months anywhere, I’m convinced every job is first and foremost about money. Following this post
