Hey Y'all
So heres my story: I am an electronic engineering student from Ireland, I have one more year left at Uni which has got me thinking about what I plan to do with this life of mine...My girlfriend and I visited Boston last summer just after Lollapalooza and we both loved it! I'm mulling over the idea of leaving Ireland once I graduate to live in Boston. Anyone out there from Boston have any advice? Any engineers in Boston got advice? Would you recommend it as a place to live?!
Also, Average Engineering salary in boston: $88,000
Average Engineering salary in Dublin: 30,000 euro...say no more....
Plus, theres also the chance that I'd catch a PJ gig next summer in Boston hopefully:)

You could do worse than to live & work in Boston.

Boston do seem to have a love for the Irish right enough, they probably drink more guinness than we do:)

Hey, when I was Dublin they said Guinness produces 4 million pints a day and they only export 2 million to the world. Which means the Irish are drinking 2 million a day!!!

Wow! So Ireland consumes the same amount of Guinness as eveyone else added together! Thats mental. Come to think of it, I've walked down Grafton Street on a Saturday night and bumped into guys who look like they've had 2 million pints all by themselves....

Yeah, you Europeans take drinking to a whole other level. I have German realtives so I know. They don't serve in pints they use liters.

its no NYC, but its a great city
1. chicago is cooler than boston
2. any need for american attorneys in ireland? i'd be happy to switch you places!
Denny Crane!
its only 7:10 and a Guinness actually sounds good. Maybe it's the coffee.....hmmmm
...Yeah, I was suprised by the figure too... I'm sure thats not a graduate salary, possibly more a managerial figure..
Ah well, I wouldnt really do this for the money to be fair, but it would be a bonus!
1. To me, Chigago seemed a lot more hustle bustle than Boston, but maybe thats cause I was only there for a short while. Also, theres nothing like seeing the ocean from boston:)
2. Americans are always welcome over here! I'm sure youd feel right at home:)

But I'd think carefully about it. It's a lot different living here than visiting here. And the culture is no more friendly to the Irish than it is to Indians...those days are done imo, so I wouldn't think of Boston as "New Ireland" or something.
Boston IS great, and there are a LOT of Irish people here.
however:
"Also, Average Engineering salary in boston: $88,000
Average Engineering salary in Dublin: 30,000 euro...say no more...."
1) you do realize the euro is currently up on the dollar?
2) the AVERAGE rent for a one bedroom apartment is about $1500/month in boston.
What do you mean?
...people make different salaries based on level of experience, level of education, and the type of engineering they do.
my def. of HELL ON EARTH
why do you have to be a dick? oh, that's right you're from ny you don't know any better.
