Then why do you live there?

Because my wife lives here.

I wouldn't hold out so much hope for other places. The big
telecomms firms are all down and none are recruiting on either
side of the pond. My ex-boss was/is pretty much in charge of
transferring all support out of Richardson (TX) to Montreal and
to Mexico. He's a manager now in Mexico.

Our stuff in Santa Barbera has also shut down.

I know others are doing worse. At least we've pretty much
stopped laying people off now.
