I’ve been asked to relocate by multiple companies and probably would have if not for my wife owning a successful business where we live. That was something that people understood it seems.

I remember being so surprised years ago when a recruiter couldn’t understand why I would fly up to NY for a week at a time and then fly home every weekend. I know there are people who do it, I just can’t imagine it.




I knew a guy who flew from Boston to London every weekend, to see his wife. They were both being paid dumptrucks of cash, though.


Most people actually like their families. Many people have come to that realization with the pandemic.
