Texans are notoriously bad about accepting outsiders who bitch about the
circumstances that find them in Texas. If your job has placed you here
against your will, then that's not the fault of Texans.

I would CHOOSE no other state to live, but that's just me.

Well, I probably came off a little harsh. I did, obviously, choose to
move here and eventually would have even without the job. In fact,I
told my now boss at my interview that I was planning on staying in Texas
and would not move to the state our headquarters in located in (I know a
few of you know who I work for, so that shouldn't be a surprise!). I'm
not a Yankee (Navy brat who spent most of her time in the South), but
since I moved here from Chicago, I'm pegged as one in Texas. That
really bothers me.
