[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As I've posted elsewhere, I work in foreign affairs (not Foreign Service), which is a career I love but isn't really transferable to other places.

I don't hate DC or think it's a shitty place, but I don't particularly like it either.  I guess the best I could say about it is that it doesn't suck.  I grew up on the West Coast, and the culture is just different out there.  Not better or worse - simply different.  I feel like I fit in better and find the lifestyle more comfortable out West.[/quote]

Why would you pick a career that takes you away from the place you love?[/quote]

They said they love their career not the west coast. All they said about that was that they fit in better there than the east coast. Foreign service will likely take you all over the world.

I'm not a dc hater and find these threads incredible annoying but pp doesn't seem to be trashing dc, why do you insist in reading that into it?[/quote]

Well, she/he says they fit in better/more comfortable on the West Coast. Sounds like love to me but whatever. [/quote]
