Advice on being a post-doc at Berkeley

<p>Any grad students or post-docs out there who could tell me what it is like to be a post-doc at Berkeley?</p>

<p>Does you salary cover expenses?</p>

<p>What university services are available to you?</p>

<p>The environment will be different depending on your field and professor you are working with, but does anybody have any general advice or might share any experiences?</p>
