The accent Sal speaks with is apparently a New Jersey/New York accent (though I don't expect any Brits to know that).
I think if there is just one Sal as aslate says, it poses a slight metaphysical problem. How the hell can he have a different job in a different part of the universe in every episode in which he appears?
I think there is no Sal. Sal is a product of the Matrix just a stereotypical worker that just happens to look the same.
Or, there could be clones? How many of you out there have heard/read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy radio series? Remember Lintilla? She was a remarkably smart and beautiful archaeologist (exactly what Sal is not, but follow my logic), so scientists cloned her and sent her all over the galaxy to perform jobs. I think this is a much more likely Sal explanation. (In Lintilla's case, the cloning machine got misaligned, so they couldn't stop producing Lintillas without killing one that was half-created, which constituted murder. The cloning factory then created Allitnils (Lintilla spelled backwards pluralized), which were designed to fall in love with Lintillas (and vice-versa) and, when they went to marry the Lintillas, the Lintilla would sign not a marriage certificate, but an Agreement to Cease to Be (or something like that). They ended up getting rid of lots of Lintillas in the end. Perhaps we need to create some Lases to get rid of all these Sals.)
That turned out to be a very long post!

But...but...even with 0.99c transit, he can't be in two places at once! (And that law has never[/i] been bent or broken in Futurama.) I like my Lintilla post.
