[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound spoiled and naive if you think this isn't the path to a job after a PH.D. You go were the openings are. I know someone doing an assistant professor job in Australia after doing a post doc in Ga. Jobs in academia are unicorns and you have to chase after them. It usually involves moving far down the ladder from the tier you get your degree. If you aren't available to move then you have to get a job in the private sector. If you can find a job for your husband here maybe you can stay, but I think you need to get on board with looking for jobs in academia with him. You want him to work all those years just for you to throw a hissy fit now?[/quote

I'm spoiled because I want to stay here and be employed ? How about all the years I studied and worked for my career ? [/quote]

And this is what marriage is about.... COMPROMISE and COMMUNICATION.  Since you have seen him start to look outside of DC, I would suggest bringing up the topic to him so you both can discuss options.  [/quote]

I could see him pulling a fast one on me and accepting a job without talking to me about it first. He's done similar stuff in the past. [/quote]
