[quote=Anonymous]Husband has just looked online for jobs in the new city and there definitely are some private sector postings that he'd be qualified for, but no way to tell how they'd view his application as he is a lifelong fed.

My new opportunity is very stable. Most of the people with similar roles have been there for well over a decade (and many far longer than that). There have never been layoffs, though of course there is a first time for everything.

I'm 48 and DH is 52 (so he also is worried about age discrimination when he applies for new jobs).

My misery mainly comes from what the administration did to my agency and what it continues to do. But even after this administration, I don't see how the agency recovers to anything like it had been, as so many people have left. I try not to panic about these sorts of things, but I don't see how it would be a place I want to work in the next decade.

[quote=Anonymous]Has your husband looked at what job opportunities there might be for him in the new city? How stable is the new opportunity for you, including how well will it weather problems with the economy that everyone is saying are coming?

How well will your child tolerate you not being around half the time?

How old are you and your husband, which will give us an idea of how many more years of working you are talking about?

Is the misery in your current job because of the current administration, because you don’t like the actual work, or some other reason?[/quote][/quote]
