Moving to California anyone? Stellarvue jobs...
Hi All,
I just noticed this. If I was in California I would be sorely tempted to have a chat with Stellarvue: https://www.stellarvue.com/employment/
Any takers?

Re: Moving to California anyone? Stellarvue jobs...
Wow, I didn't know that there were any people still moving to California. Heh.
U-Haul has the data on this subject: California is the most moved-from state. Texas is most moved-to.
See https://www.uhaul.com/Articles/About/13 ... 1-IN-2017/
So... maybe Stellarvue should move to Texas?
Clear skies, y'all.

Re: Moving to California anyone? Stellarvue jobs...
Yes, people are moving out of California - lots of reasons for it - high taxes, housing costs, a general high-stress environment in the urban areas, and so on.

Over-population has wrecked California, and will do the same to Colorado in short order.

This is because people don't know where to live in California. Drive a couple of hours east from the cost - hardly any soul around.

Heh. Freudian slip there?
Yes indeed, you should drive as far away from the "cost" as you can!Bigzmey wrote: ...Drive a couple of hours east from the cost ..

Hey, we just moved here (three years ago). However, we're in the mountains where the real weirdos are.
