Zarich Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Went from being a manager in a large organization to the director in a small organization. Still in the WTF did I do stage, but overall I think it is going to work out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Nice congratulations on the new job. I'm sure it will work out for you. I'm moving to Chandler Arizona next month, same job they are just closing all CA offices by next year and offered a relocation bonus if you went to the new AZ office. I've never lived outside of CA before so I'm a bit excited and nervous at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping that I will also be in a new line of work by the end of the year. Plan to work 2 jobs for as long as I can as I plan to save up for a new home. Houses ain't cheap in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Yeah, I'm getting a nice relocation bonus, plus I'd just have no job anymore if I didn' t take it. Plus I found a decent apartment for $960 a month that's only 7.5 miles from the office I'll be working at. I'm hoping that by the end of the lease I'll be able to buy a home out there. You can definitely get a decent starter home for around $250,000 out there. I do hate the heat. Not really looking forward to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a home body now mostly. I plan to move up to crestline in about a year and a half and I have found several homes in the $250k - $300 that would suit my needs. Also it's only a 20min drive from where I currently live and it's much cooler up there. We'll see how the housing market is then hopefully things don't get too crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told myself I was going to cut the cord, but I can get gigabit internet through cox with the major movie channels for $150 a month. I'm mostly a homebody too, so good internet would be nice. Not sure I really need that though. I could just get 300MB for $80 a month with no cable and save money. Hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My job was taking my life. Working all the time, on call all the time and new Management who had beliefs that didn't align with my own. I was pretty miserable. So It was time to change.
