[quote=Anonymous]My husband accepted a contact job 1 year ago and we moved to FL. The contract is 3 years. I thought everything was going well and we decided he would stay on for another year. We recently renewed out lease. We're at the 14 month mark right now. I recently started working and my son goes to daycare. A few days ago my husband tells me he's angry because he asked for a raise and got rejected. He now is applying for jobs out of state because there are not a lot of employers in his field where we live. His salary is a lot of higher so it makes sense that I have to follow him but I am just so sad and frustrated.... I have only been at my job for 1 month now. It's a work from home but I am not sure if I can work from another state. My employer is in FL. The COL is also a lot less and this makes childcare more affordable. If we moved to Boston or the Bay area there's no way I could afford childcare. The nanny would most likely make more than me there and I would be forced to be a SAHM. I haven't said anything to my husband. I am just venting. Please help. The way he communicated everything was a mass. He was acting weird and I had to pull information out of him. BTW who asks for a raise from a contracting job? He's only 1 year into the job market. He finished grad school only 1 year ago and is making 90k. We live in FL so this salary is fine. It seems silly to leave a job because you did not get a raise. He also feels like the job in dead end. Apparently lots of the contractors quit after 6 months for a permanent job somewhere else. Right now the only job leads my husband has are contract jobs out of state. He is not on a visa or anything but he did recently become a US citizen. Usually contract jobs do NOT pay for relocation. We would have to spend 3k to break our lease. Everything is all happening together and it's so exhausting thinking about maybe moving and my new job etc etc. We also have a 2 year old and he's so much work. He constantly screams. [/quote]
