Choices
It is always good to have choices. Even if you don’t choose.
What to do. My hometown newspaper has offered me a dream job. Mon- Fri 8-5 designing. I love design. It is one of my favorite parts of the newspaper business. I would get to do a bit of editing as well.
So what’s the problem? It is in Sheridan, WY. Maybe if I hadn’t grown up there I would be exited to go back. Just the thought of moving back there makes be feel like I can’t breathe.
It would be nice to be close to by family, but that seems like the only bonus.
There is also a fabulous job opportunity in Casper, WY. The Casper Star Tribune is a really great paper. Really great. They have an opening for a copy editor and designer. It has a great benefits package, plus a 401K.
But Casper, WY is like the butt crack of Wyoming. It is windy and dirty and there is a lot of meth-related crime. And the mountains are small and the ski area sucks.
Hopefully a job opportunity will arise here in Western Montana.
Jaime, if you don’t like where you live you shouldnt go there just for a job. Also, if you take a offer and begin working and something else becomes available doesnt mean you can’t ever change. Don’t want to sound like a bossy Aunt just trying to help. Great job though that all these opportunity are becoming avaliable.

I am glad you have the opportunity to come back to Sheridan but, I hope you never do - the opportunities here for you and Chris are not good unless he wants to work in the Methane Fields - folks here just can’t seem to get it that the mountains don’t pay the rent or buy the groceries.
