Hello all. I was hoping someone could help me out. I can't take the arctic winters anymore and am aiming for a September move to the Wilmington area. Can anyone tell me the general pay scale for a retail/customer service type position there? I currently work in a deli making $10.75 an hour, 35-40 hours a week. Can I find anything similar there? Is a decent job going to be difficult to find?
Also, what is considered a cheap apartment? I'm going to be needing a pet friendly place to live. I currently pay $625 a month for a small one bedroom in a apartment complex with the worst reputation in town. I'm not afraid of high crime rate or bugs as we have both in this place. Can anyone recommend a nice, cheap, pet friendly place that can be afforded on a retail salary?
I am certainly willing to change the time I plan to move if a different date would make my transition easier. If anyone could recommend something closer to Carolina Beach I would appreciate it. I have many fond memories of vacationing there as a child and would love to live there.
P.S. To those of you posting beach photos, they really brighten my sunless day.
