    I have accepted 2 tentative job offers (pending background check), one in Arizona and one in Arkansas. They are similar jobs but not identical.

    The job in Arizona pays considerably more. Heat doesn't really bother me. The job in Arkansas is a smaller scale operation with far fewer employees, something I enjoy. I also like having 4 seasons.

    The wife would rather go to Arizona. I am undecided. Any thoughts? Ridicule welcome for asking random folks advice on a major life decision.

    Thanks. Actually just got the tentative offer email from Arizona, and the pay is twice what I would get in Arkansas. So that helps me decide, no contest. Hello Arizona! Bullhead City, specifically.

    Yessir, it did. I'm pretty pumped, looks like a neat place to live. Plus my truck won't rust (anymore)!

    It'll be a while before I actually move there, still have to jump through some hoops. Physical exam, DMV records, background investigation, etc.

    If your friend is taking new customers, I'll go there for sure.

    David is a damn good guy!! Next time you're in there (if you think of it) ask him if his nickname is Buckwheat. That should really blow his mind!!!
