Title: If your job wanted you to......
Post by: tjung10 on May 09, 2012, 03:37:57 am
transfer to some other place to work...and you were given the choice, where and why?

** Even if you don't have a typical job you can play along!

Back to New England. Even though the snow would get to me after living down South, I'd like to be closer to my family, as well as closer to civilization.

I was offered to relocate to Canada to work, but after considering the weather I had to pass.

Not really sure, but for the right amount of money I think almost anywhere would work.

I'd have to think long and hard about that.  I've lived in the south all my life except for 4 yrs in California when I was in high school and that state has gotten so liberal don't think I'd want to live there again: but that's just me.  lol

I would for the right opportunity and as long as it was a place I found visually attractive.  I have been spoiled by living on the West Coast in some of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen. It does make a difference to me in my daily life if I am surrounded by beauty, water, mountains, etc.  Places that are too flat, hot, crowded, etc.  don't have much attraction for me.  Good topic!

As long as I remained near a real beach and good weather I would. I couldn't move anywhere that actually had a harsh winter. I can barely survive Florida winters

There are very few places I would be willing to move. Southern California or Hawaii are probably the only places I would agree to.

I would like to transfer to Ireland or Scotland.

Ireland is a good choice, some very pleasant and friendly people there.  I would be happy to move back to Europe again, actually anywhere in Europe.  I would actually prefer England, France or Italy, although German is the only language I speak except for English.

i would probably go anywhere, as long as it wasn't
rural. but the place i work for will only open stores in
areas that meet certain population criteria, like many
other retail stores, so i wouldn't have to worry about
that anyway...

if they were paying for it, they could send me wherever  :P

I probably would choose not to relocate.

Only if the job was very well paying and advanced my career would I consider uprooting my children to move.

If it is an overseas employer and they promise to provide housing, then I can think about it. Safety is also a consideration as well. If the job is back home in the states, it depends how far. If it is too far (over 1+ hrs) to drive back and forth, I might pass up the opportunity. If it is to relocate in another state, the same condition apply too as overseas employment.

Right now I'm kinda open.  If it was a job in my field and I got to do what I want and was paid a fair amount, I'd probably be fine with it.  I'm just starting out though and looking for a job so really anything would be awesome.

To Canada or Hawaii.  The people there seem so laid back and happy even in the workplace.

I am not sure I have only lived in two states, I lived in California for 20 years which I was a kid and I have lived in Missouri for 20years but adult years.  I like living in the country and not having a bunch of neighbors.  But of course I don't like leaving my house or being around people the doctor said I had depression with anxety disrorder.  So I guess I would not trasfer besides my son his here and my mother who is very ill so I would stay.

 :wave: :wave:  I think it would be like a great adventure, if you really really hated it you cold move back to wherever you wanted.  I have lived several different places and have enjoyed them all for different reasons.  A time in Colorado, North Carolina, California, Arizona.  I would love to have the money where I had homes in several places and could just go to each one when the mood struck!  LOL     I use to love it when I would have to go for a month or 6 weeks to different areas to do training for our company, you can get a real feel for a place in a month or two.
