How much are you offering? I ask because the Bay area is about the most expensive real estate market in North America.  I wouldn't advise taking any job there for under $100k py.  It's a beautiful area but 1500 sq ft, 3 bed, 2 bath houses in a so so part of town cost upward of 500k.  If you're looking to beak the 2000 sq ft barrier, you'll have to cough up >$1 million

 I wasn't seriously expecting an offer in the 100k range.  I can't imagine any company willing to pay 100k for a bench tech or lead.  I'm willing to say that's an impossibility on Simco's (or any other company's) part.  Thanks for you candor though!
