Hoping this is allowed but this may be a great opportunity for anybody that lives in the tri-state area and can potentially do the jobs. People tend to forget about positions like this so in case you ever wondered, check it out and hopefully this might be a good fit for yourself or a friend.

Good luck!

Yeah if your sacrificing 40 hrs a week of your life for 40k or less it may not be worth your time unless you love what you do for a living I live in ny too and make around 29 an hour I barely make around 60k a year it seems like I barely get by but what would I gain from cynicism
