Question for the ladies here – would you quit a job you love if your husband’s career demands relocation?
Ai...
tough tough question.
Depends on situation to situation. If my husband is not a deadbeat and his job really means a lot to him, then yes.
I would accomodate him if his career meant so much to him and if the situation was reversed, I would expect him to accomodate me as well.
yeap...
if he can do the same for me
It depends.. if he's getting promoted, then yes, otherwise no.
of course!! ![]()
obviously
.. mayb i could find even better one where we r relocating ![]()
yep.
no ![]()
Even if I did I would give him a lot of slack and expect a lot of compensation in return, after all its the job I love that I’m leaving.
hmmmm so far its
4 ... depends
4 ... yes and
1 .. no
interesting stats .. I was expecting something like
4 .. depends
1 yes (but depends on ......) and
1 NO WAY !!
its also a pretty broad question - so many factors come into play when having to make a decision like that, that it really does vary from situation to situation.
I dont think anyone would WANT to leave a job they like for any reason. But sometimes, certain reasons are overriding - depends on the circumstances and what is best for everyone.
Its one thing to answer broad questions like this when single. Things change when you have kids to think about, methinks.
lo ji, ye kis kisam ka sawal hae
ofcourse
No ..
I would let him go alone and once he is settled and happy with it, I might go there.
Sweetpie
is back .. U wont believe it but I was thinking of you..
Hows your new job going ? Have you travelled to China already?

probably, yes.
ah, now ladies: What if going with your husband means you probably wont be able to relocate your job - maybe its the type of job that you only get in that area…er…
or maybe you’re working with a population of people you wont get in the place you would be moving to? So it puts a dent in your career? Or the career options in the place your husband wants to move to is not lucrative for your career.
Would you move with him, and maybe look into options of getting into another career? Would it matter who is making the bigger bucks?

Happy debating. :k:
depends on who is earning more and how much more :D:
hmm, I'm listening ladies. Would like to see more responses.
men's comments on the above. . . ?
Hiya,
My husband just got a great job offer in Calgary and we are relocating up to Calgary from Dallas.. At first the decision seemed so impossible. To move or not......becuase like someone mentioned there are a million factors that play into the decision..
Finally, it was me who decided because my husband knew how much he was asking of me...esp given that the new job meant him travelling 60% of the time and me being alone in a new place alot... Also, meant delaying any plans of a family and my career was either going to have to change or I was going to have to just adjust to a smaller scope for what I did...
The thing that helped me make my decision was a conversation with a friend of mine...who simply said you are a giving up your comfort zone and something you love for someone you love. But dont make this decision unless you are able to do so without any negative feelings. Those two things really stuck with me... I was giving up my life here, something I do love, but I was giving it up for someone I love.. It just simplified the situation down... I picked my husband... and Im sure everyone in the same boat might...
this is getting to bee too long an entry and I am fasting learning how much people hate to read long entries....
