well he does have a point
it is very array like, no indexes everthing hashed and complex to manipulate but he might not be that desparate yet. The company I was thinking about does the southeast and northeast, not much out west. Yes I would do it again and hate it just as much but only if I had to. thanx, bill

I will consider relocation
The idea that a person can find something right in their back yard during a tech recession is unrealistic anyhow, especially in CaliExDotComFornia.

Unrealistic?
3 miles away. Down a country road.
I go home for lunches, in fact.

Bah. Practically commuting, is that.
I live less than 400 metres away from work.
I go home for lunch, too... on foot.

60-70?
Does your office move around in the night? Is it on wheels?

Re: On the other end....
I drive 50 miles each way every day. But the drive is nice, because I go away from the city (where I live) into the country. The drive takes about 1 hour and doesn't deviate very much. I've seen no accidents in 3 months now.
The company has VPN and I have a cable modem and they cooperate well together. So, I would like to ask for "home work", however, they are starting to cast me into a management role, where I'm leading/tutoring/managing other employees and I can't very well do that from home.
So, I have a meeting with the big boss tomorrow and I want him to commit to putting me into a more "formal" management position, or I'm going to start lobbying for work from home.

Nice.
The only businesses within that distance here are dry cleaning shops and grocery stores. :-)

Me either.
Actually, my place is very good at leaving us alone when we're not on duty.
