Maybe I Should Set a Reminder

Huh... I honestly didn't realize I forgot so many weeks in a row to post anything. Sorry about that. Past few weeks have been somewhat busy for me, but still should have remembered.
Anyway, there are several possible topics but the one I have an opinion I feel like sharing is Amazon looking for a location for its HQ2/second head quarters. I am glad to see the news that the company is willing to consider places other than the largest cities, on the coasts, where the cost of living is really high. I do wonder how much various companies have been hurting their ability to hire when they are located in expensive places. It might be prestigious, but how much talent is not interested in moving hundreds to thousands of miles for a job that will barely make ends meet, when instead they could find a nearer job that pays left, but also leaves them with savings? I know where I would rather take a job.
