I will admit that I like nice things but don't feel that I must have what others have (normally it's the other way around) but hell I keep thinking that I may need to look for another job to make more money. I'm in the South and want to ensure that I meet my potential.
Are you noticing a difference in their treatement based on locale? To some people (those who have not migrated from the North) 35-40K+ is cool. But Northerners tend to expect more, especially since they're used to a higher cost of living.
