There are so many questions here. The first one is: Have you found one yet?

If not then,
1. What kind of experience, skills, certifications, etc do you have? There are so many jobs to dig into depending on what you have done before (while serving or not) that may make you qualified for a number of positions.
2. How do you define "good pay"? Working the drive thru at Wendy's may not get you good pay depending on what you are looking for. I understand Seattle has a solid minimum wage but the cost of living is high as well. You shouldn't expect to have a $100K/year out of the gate but you should be able to get a living wage but that depends on the job, industry, etc.
3. Have you started your job search yet? If you don't start looking you'll never know what's out there so I suggest you get your research in to find the job you would like and then find 5 more that are like it because odds are you won't get your best option so broaden your scope. Go to sites like GlassDoor.com to look up the companies that are in Seattle and if there is much feedback on working there, etc.


That's just to start. However if you're not finding what you're looking for in Seattle look around the area and see what else is out there.

Good luck Marine!
