have you ever ridden the escalator at 53rd-Lex? that one is definitely one you gotta walk up/down if you want to catch the 6/E, like, ever
That one is like six stories tall

exactly, hence why you walk it if you wanna catch your train (although it's usually broken, so your ass is walking up it anyway)

Just got back from LA and jokes aside I think I'm going to move there

Pretty sure my employer will set me up with an L1-A visa but I'd have to work in NY for a year or so... isn't there some kind of white privilege I have to come steal ur jobs? Will Trump let me in?

Also what're some good US job sites? I'm looking on Monster but they don't list salaries for some reason
out of curiosity, what did you love about southern california?

anyway: dice, indeed, craigslist (honestly). You're best bet is to find somebody down there who could be your boss, or is in a position to be your boss and just ask for an informational interview. They don't have to be hiring, just buy them coffee and ask what they will look for in an applicant when they do. It takes 10-15 minutes. Do this with as many people as you can. Eventually one will tell you they know somebody who is hiring or one of them will open a position and I can almost guarantee you'll be first ballot.
what I loved:
the weather
cost of living
the place/scenery/activities
the women and their effort to bang ratio (not sure if it's just my accent but whatever it was I'll take it)
most of the food was good too

people are also obviously less reserved over there - sure there's a few lunatics but as long as they don't shoot up the place i don't mind them

I've done some more research and it looks like the easiest path is to work from NY on an L1 visa and then apply for a green card

People in LA are fucking stupid.  Also, congratulations on riding the LA subway! It really is a piece of work.  You must not have been trying to go that far.

Also, cost of living in any half-decent area of LA is pretty expensive.  Where were you? I bet you spent a lot of time in West Hollywood.

Spent most of my time in Beverly Hills and a bit in West Hollywood and Santa Monica - thought most things were relatively cheap compared to here (I was often pretending the pound was worth 2 dollars to justify the stupid shit I was spending money on) but even with reality factored in I don't think it's too bad.

Only went two stops from near Griffith Park to the hollywood strip, uber'd the rest of the time and rented a car which I almost drove off Hollywood hill

When I was in london I noticed the escalators were a lot wider, thus more conducive to standing to one side or another as opposed to standing in the middle (which was mere inches from either side)

I'll have to pay for it but I might put it on my expenses for a laugh
