    - Is there a decent sit-down place they could go to? Change in venue might help. -- nm - Roger More Mar 22, 09:33 1
      - this is the plan; make them come together to hate the caterers -- nm - Beaker Mar 22, 09:33
- that is not a very professional caterer -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:29

        See? - Spawn Mar 22, 09:35 7
        
        no food business is going to piss away potential future business, especially business catering..... - groiny Mar 22, 09:37 5
        
        But there are also times you know you effed up too bad. From Andie's initial IM, I think they are already there. -- nm - Spawn Mar 22, 09:38 4
        
        They are in our regular roster of caterers, but they are off the list. -- nm - Andie Mar 22, 09:40 3

Some Toys ‘R’ Us Stores May Be Worthless, Deutsche Bank Says -- (link) - crash davis Mar 22, 09:22 3

ST Poll: Your current employer has offered you a 50% raise for relocation to CA or NY. Do you choose either one, or stay where you are? -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 09:08 36
- From the midwest,south? You'd need more than that to cover the bump in housing and taxes -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 22, 14:05
- To New York, never, to another part of California...I'd consider it. -- nm - IrishStephen Mar 22, 09:35
- ummmmmmm -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 09:30
- I'm pretty happy in DC, but I guess LA is possible. Not much interest in SF or NYC. -- nm - MDH Mar 22, 09:16 3
  - We are never talking again. -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 09:30 2
    - [deleted] 1
      - meh, MDH is DTM -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 09:39
- More seriously, it depends where. 50% more would be good for large swaths of the states, but not NYC (I probably could make do in Staten Island) -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:16
- California: Maybe. New York: No. Chicago? Probably. -- nm - David Mar 22, 09:16 2
  - just think of how much fun we can have!!!! -- nm - groiny Mar 22, 09:20 1
    - You can point out colors to David and he can carry your defibrillator. You'd be unstoppable! -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:23
- I wouldn't relocate to NY. I wouldn't move that far from my elderly dad. -- nm - jnine Mar 22, 09:16
- Sure. -- nm - Diva Mar 22, 09:14
- Sure, there's places in California that would be cheaper overall and still be great. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 22, 09:14
- I own my business. If I was guaranteed 50% more net and also adjusted to COL I would consider some parts of CA. -- nm - Spawn Mar 22, 09:13 3
  - I interpret as you get the raise, not the COL, which is why this is interesting. -- nm - MDH Mar 22, 09:16 2
    - Actually, upon reflecting upon it the answer is no. Even if the income was 2x as much. I would not make Logan move. -- nm - Spawn Mar 22, 09:17
    - Correct. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 09:16
- Either, depending on exactly where in each state though. -- nm - znufrii Mar 22, 09:13
- maybe CA, not a chance for NY -- nm - groiny Mar 22, 09:12
- Sure -- nm - JD Mar 22, 09:12
- Considering what I do in life (video editor), yes for CA, though I have no real interest in living in the US permanently -- nm - Guigue Mar 22, 09:11
- Yes, but I would take a flat $ increase instead. (NM) - Marlowe Mar 22, 09:11
- absolutely -- nm - decline Mar 22, 09:11
- [deleted]
- NYC - yes. SF/SD - probably. LA - I would have to go check it out first, but no immediate reason not to. -- nm - Roger More Mar 22, 09:10
- since the relocation to CA is just outside of Sequoia national park & the NY relocation is to ty's apartment, I chose CA -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:10 2
  - Go for outside of Yosemite, it's prettier. -- nm - jnine Mar 22, 09:16 1
    - It crossed my mind, but also the much larger crowds. If I move outside of a park then I won't want to share it so much. -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:18
- In my profession, not a chance - Reagen Mar 22, 09:10 1
  - But.. but.. Think of the guns!!! (NM) - Marlowe Mar 22, 09:13
- i wouldn't move to the US at all right now. If it was a 50% increase to move to another province, still only a maybe. -- nm - Andie Mar 22, 09:10 4
  - Oh Andie, Hey Andie....you're gonna love me. -- nm - Winnipeg, waving money Mar 22, 09:11 3
    - Glancing at the cost of real estate there, i'd be rich! -- nm - Andie Mar 22, 09:13 2
      - sell your place, move into Dignan's basement, you'll be rolling in the dough -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:14 1
        
        Rolling in ...something. -- nm - Spawn Mar 22, 09:21

since Dawson was being snarky, more than you ever wanted to know about Dave Bieter, the mayor of Boise - crash davis Mar 22, 09:04 3
- He's a Democrat? -- nm - jnine Mar 22, 09:13 2
  - [deleted]
  - very much so -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 09:19
