1200 is okay but on the low-end. You should average about 1500/week.

Sometimes it's not about the pay. San Diego is a wonderful place
to go. I would have never gone there as a tourist. My time there didn't pay

$1500/week takehome? what company are you with? That'd be great, I would take that. I'm finding on the high side, i'm being offered about 1400/week takehome, and that's after taxes/insurance/etc. I work ICU
What company are you with? That'd be great
