I'd relocate even for an okay job. I graduated from college in May, am still unemployed, and currently have $70 to my name at the moment. There's nothing in particular tying me to where I am, so let's move.
I moved to China for four years... though that was much more about location than job. Right now, with no kids or house, I would be open to moving but having some sort of social or family connection in the new area would be very important to me.
My husband did relocate for a better job, though it's not perfect. We moved 3,000 miles, but it helped that my family is in the area the better job is. :) We've been here 2 years and are so much happier!
Its true that at normal atmospheric pressure carbon dioxide cannot be found in a liquid state (it'll go directly from gas to solid). However, if you pressurize carbon dioxide, you can get liquid. The carbon dioxide in those dusting canisters is pressurized, and therefore is liquid.
Why not? If it's the perfect job, you have to at least give it a shot. As someone pointed out above, you can always move back. Heck, I've considered relocating for far less than perfect jobs.
I would be happy to relocate. I'd be less picky about the job if I loved the location, and vice versa. I won't actively seek it, as I'm happy here now, but sure, I am open to it.
I do not think I could relocate for the "perfect job" unless it was within an hour of my hometown. Family and friends are more important (and make me happier) than money.
Heck yes! I actually moved from Philadelphia, PA to Los Angeles, CA for a job. Although looking back this job was more of a headache with the commute, expenses and disappointing work experience. I am getting laid off by end of March. So if I don't find another gig around here I may be forced to relocate to another city or even another state.
Right now, I'd be up for moving anywhere for the perfect job because I'm single and have no ties to any particular place (my family is scattered in various countries). However, if I was married, had kids in school, etc., there would be a lot more factors to consider other than my own personal job satisfaction. Also, while I believe that it is important to find fulfillment in one's work, the job shouldn't be a person's whole life. Sometimes it might be better to settle for a good job and amazing social/family life than have the perfect job without any outside enjoyment.
I would relocate for the perfect job. (It would have to meet my definition of "perfect": something I really loved doing and would have to pay decently). Of course, my spouse would have to be in agreement first. And it also depends on where we would be relocating to. Some places are more desirable than others.
I've been happily retired for 20 years so it's not likely that I'd change my present position or my home... but, given the right challenge, I might consider it.
I'd like to be in a position to change the direction our country is headed.
I'd like to be advisor to the president. I don't care much for Washington, but living there would be a worthwhile concession for the satisfaction of being able to give back to the country some good, in exchange for the benefits I've had over the past two decades.
I would like to be the voice of the average citizen, to stand above the lobbies and special interests and to bring common sense and peace to a nation sliding into mediocrity and third world status.
The condition would be to that I would have the last word after all other advisors had spoken. Not the final decision, but the opportunity to speak the truth to power.
Though fermenting with yeast produces a relatively low proportion of wood alchohol to grain alcohol, wood alcohol (methanol) has a lower boiling point and is thus concentrated in the first and last of the production run, as the temperature rises to the optimum level, and falls below it.
Therefore, it's REALLY important to pour off the first and last (foreshot and aftershot) of the product, to get rid of the methanol; and to monitor the temperature of the mash during distillation. Methyl alcohol boils at 64.5C (147F); ethanol, at 78.5C (173.3F).
Methanol turns into formaldehyde in your liver... VERY toxic stuff. The effects of methanol poisoning are cumulative, and can result in blindness and death.
Living in Los Angeles working in the entertainment industry, one could say I already made such a move (having grown up in the east coast) when I went here for college. Now that I have something resembling a career here as well as new friends and loved ones I would say I would only move if it was a temporary (less than a year) gig, like shooting a movie on location somewhere, and it would have to substantially support my being able to hold onto my current place as well as living expenses in the new location, plus probably enough extra to allow me to return and have some free time to myself, to catch up with lost time at home, as it were.
I'm itching to relocate so I'd do it even for an almost perfect job if I liked the place enough. I have no ties and it's just the time of life where I'm free to go wherever. So I would go wherever for the perfect job.
I think the location would have to be a part of the definition of the perfect job. I would definitely move for the perfect ob though. Perfect, being so subjective, it would have to be right for my family for it to be considered perfect
It really depends on what the other factors surrounding the relocation. For me, if I were to get an offer in an ABC city, I would assess the following:
1. Does the city safe enough to raise a family and have a good population diversity?
2. What other changes will entail if I move there for my husband? (e.g. can he find a job there? Will he be able to find friends and do what he is passionate about there?)
3. What kind of impact will relocation and job change do to our finance?
4. Lastly, and most importantly, I will ask my heart to check if I am committed enough to handle all seen and unseen challenges cause by this change to make this move work and worthwhile?
There are so many other factors to consider. My mother is my best friend and my daycare provider, I live in a wonderful community (though the climate could be better), and I love my life here. I do not have my dream job, but my life is about so much more than work.
I don't let a rebate for a big-ticket item sway my decision - I've been screwed by Tiger Direct, CompUSA and Staples. Apparently Tiger Direct is notorious for rejecting rebates. The Rite Aid rebate program is a piece of cake - you know within 3 days if your purchase qualified, it's all done online, and if it doesn't qualify you can just return the item. I often do rebates for Nabisco and Kelloggs - so far so good. I got my Verizon Wireless cell phone rebate in the form of a $50 debit card and took the option to transfer the $50 into my bank account.
Good review. I've been resisting a "task system" for quite some time now. I just keep a notebook and it works fine, but I know I can be more efficient with one of the digi versions. I'll check out some of these. Thanks!

absolutely I would. I have simple needs, so the perfect job would provide me with the means and time off to visit home whenever I pleased.
As I am currently unemployed, I'm pretty much relocate for any almost decent job.

If I was absolutely sure that the job was my perfect job then I would relocate for it.
I would move to an amazing city for an ok job, (think Paris, New York, or maybe even a small town close to my family!)
but even the most perfect job in the world wouldn't get me to move somewhere I didn't want to live.
So I guess where I live is more important then what I do there!

So yeah... if the opportunity came along :)

I definitely would relocate. I'm just about to graduate from college this year, so there's nothing stopping me from moving to wherever.
I moved twice because of job opportunities.
The first time went perfect, I learnt a lot, I enjoy it and I was happier :)
The second time wasn't easy. It was a tough time for me, but looking back I see the value on it.
I would do it a third time.
