[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people say they will move / at least for the year.

But mass exodus may be unlikely but definitely more loss than they already have and that continues this year, I believe is possible. [/quote]

Maybe. I’m a Fed with a junior. We’re here for my job. DH is remote for a west coast tech firm.  But, I’m 90% certain post COVID I’ll be 100% remote.  I was 60% before, but can do the job without an office.  They have let a lot of our leased space go.  If we aren’t back in the fall FT, DD wants to take English this summer and graduate, and we’ll let her. Our housing value is up. We’ll be living in Asheville next year and both remote working.  DD will gap year.  There is a plan. Otherwise, we’ll, let her finish and move.   If I had kids younger than HS, that would be the plan. A lot of Feds and techies will never go back to the office.  Why pay the DMV COL for crap schools?

COVID has changed how people work and go to school.  The federal government gave up the Trump telework axing and Biden will make it permanent.  We aren’t being allowed in our building even if we need to be there for at least six weeks because of Trump riot/ terrorism concerns.

COVID a is going to end with a workforce much more able to work offsite than they were. I haven’t been to my office in a year. My laptop died, they Fed exes it. My annual review was on Teams.  Cost cutting post pandemic in the government is going to mean letting dead federal and tech office space no one has to go into in a year go.  Lot of people moved here for jobs and schools. The schools have been a disaster and we can leave and keep the jobs.  Why stay? [/quote]

I don’t think North Carolina is where you go for better schools...[/quote]
