I’ve lived in Arizona for over 25 years. I’m kind of dying to get out of here, but where else do you go. After being in the heat for so long, I don’t think it’s a good idea to move to somewhere that has ice cold winters. It’s just not the same dealing with the different temperature elements. Snow and cold is a whole different ball game. The heat can be managed with air conditioning, you can get to where you wanna go. No problem. You just get in your car and drive. It’s not gonna happen in New Hampshire in the winter time. I have friends that on an air conditioning, HVAC company, they are killing it! If you have that skill, you should use it. Also, if your friends and family are Christians, and are based, that I highly recommend not leaving at all. You need that support system right now you absolutely need that. For so many reasons. $10 more an hour is not that much. And unless this company is paying for you to move, I would say absolutely not! Actually, I would say absolutely not anyway, and this is coming from somebody who’s lived in Arizona for 25 years and wants to leave. The last place I would move to as we’re there snow in the winter time. Pray to the Lord and ask him what he thinks you should do. That’s when you know, it’ll be a success! If God wants you to go, then go.
Amen brother, good info, there are other benefits, pick my own hours, I wanna work 4 10's and they want to let me do that, I was shocked when I heard this, not paid sick leave bc its not needed, just let em know and make it up elsewhere or don't, they only care about having coverage for the plant and bc there strongly staffed then its all good. The prospect of having my business is intriguing and frightening at the same time. I've always taken side jobs but never relied on it full time bc of the cancer thing
Well, I didn’t know you had cancer. You definitely want a job with insurance for that. However; fenbenzodole should help with that. Anyway, it’s a huge decision to make
At one time in my life, I used to work those long shifts. We worked five on, five off, two on, and two off. I don’t think it added up to 40 hours completely, I think it was 38 hours. But still. It was an awesome schedule. 810s would be perfect.
I’ve got some huge decisions to make, it is, God is on your side, it’s the right decision. Just make sure it’s really him that’s telling you to go, because if it’s not in his will, it will be a disaster. Take it from me… You don’t wanna go that route. Regrets or a bad experience in a bad feeling, and the thing is it takes a long time to get through those bad decisions.
Like you said, at your age, do you want to come back at a later time, and then try and start over.
One thing weighing on my mind, I grew up in a state that up until recently wages were garbage due to retirees moving in and taking jobs at low wages. It didn't matter to them bc of the fact that they had a retirement pension and the only they worked for were the insurance benefits so employers didn't pay much but offered good insurance benefits. It was a nightmare for so long and made it hard to make an income. I watched friends in big cities make a killing at my same age. Mentally it messed up alot of people my age and destroyed many dudes, most people my age ended up in just a party lifestyle, drugs, booze, it just wrecked my generation in this state
Oh and yeah cancer isn't just the tumor, I found out that in actually cuts you down to the soul. You come to terms that you inside your own body failed yourself, a bout of deep depression and sorrow like I've never seen. On top of that a close cousin that's late stage cancer at 47, reminds me of horrible memories
Bummer dude! Keep your eyes on Jesus
