I am certain that there is a good reason why you don’t just pack up and leave that fair state. Care to share it with us?
Wifey refuses to entertain such thoughts until the kids are out of college. They go to a MA state school...MA loans and such. Plus I am entrenched with the company I work for and intend to retire with them. Their corp HQ is here. I could work pretty much anywhere remotely but that would take some doing.
I am due to be sent out to a new center in Utah to train some newbs next month. Depending on what I see out there, I may decide to get transferred out there. It's close enough to Idaho to make it a worthwhile commute.
So...for now...it's life in the sewer. Though with what is going on here and elsewhere these days, wifey is starting to see the light. I keep telling here the light at the end of that tunnel is a freight train and we have a limited window to get off the tracks. We'll see.
