On the other hand, you can't totally ignore weather, so I'm not moving any further north than Atlanta if I can help it.
Ironically you're getting snow this weekend while I'm not. :smoke:

Seriously though, I agree... I'm not moving again unless it's further south... Atlanta is the furthest north I'd be willing to live and I'd prefer Florida or possibly Texas.

I wouldn't mind settling in Eastern Tennessee. Get about 10-20 acres, wall it off and rest.

Ok, Mr Plainview.

There are times when I look at people and I see nothing worth liking. I want to earn enough money that I can get away from everyone.

Yep.

It has little to do with money.  Just move some place where there are very few people.

Like I did.  :)
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

A job is a job - nothing fun about it but it pays the bills.  So definately an enjoyable place to live for me.

I'd kill myself if I didn't like what I'll be doing for most of my life.

Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of other things I enjoy and would do if I didn't have to go to work, and I fucking hate commuting - but my job is often quite fun.

Hey, I go out to parties n' shit, play poker with a regular group, etc. I still hate most of humanity though.

Would I like to live in an isolated stronghold? Hells yeah.

A Job is just that. Location is everything. If you say it 3 times while looking in the mirror Biggie Smalls will appear.

i took "job" to mean a position that you honestly enjoy doing, regardless of the seemingly backwater/crowded/mundane/over-exciting/cold/hot/whatever location that it might be in. i think if you wake up every morning and look forward to the day that you spend at work, it might just be better than the environment you live in. after all, you can usually find something neat about the place you're situated in

Job-

I can go to different locations with the skills from my profession.

It's a continuum for me (like, I wouldn't accept a slightly better job if it involved a massive drop in location quality) but overall I'd say "Location". I wouldn't go to work in Abu Dhabi (even before it imploded) even if it meant getting 3-4 times more money.

Did Abu Dhabi implode?  I thought it was just Dubai for now, but I'd love to be saddened to find out I'm wrong about that.

Sorry, I meant Dubai.
