How many of you actually want to travel outside of your hometown to get a job?

I left home when I was 16 to go to the university. After graduating, I tried to go back to my hometown but I had to return to the capital because I couldn't find a job back home. I guess living on my own far from my folks taught me a lot - to be independent, be a good judge of situations and people because I am alone and to be responsible to face the consequences of my actions and more. Besides, if I did not leave home to work elsewhere I wouldn't have met my husband. I think that was the best part of working outside my hometown.

i don't think i wanna do that...

it's not for me coz I have kids...

even when i was younger...i got a very good job..it pays so well and my benefits were so good..but i quit my job when they wanted to re-assign me somewhre... i had a son at a very young age...so it makes that kind of decisions tough for me to do.

Hi Clorissa

Hope you must be doing well
to be honest, keeping in mind current scenairo and even b4 that. some times u cant find a suitable job in ur area so u HAVE TO GO OUT OF CITY to have a Job, Infact dont have any option.

U r right, when u r out of city, u learn more as u r more exposed to differnt situation which u might not face when u r Home.

i myself work in differnt city, though its just 60Km away from my place.

Take care

Hi Clorissa
Everyone dreams to have a good job in their hometown but in India,we don't have that opportunity. Ofcourse if you live in a big city then you can find a job there itself but if you live in a small one then you need to move out of your town sometimes out of your state to get a good job. If you are in the software field then you never know where they place you. You should go because there is no option. It is a selection between job or convenience. No one chooses convenience because if you leave the job there are many waiting for that chance. It is like that and we can do nothing. Ofcourse all this is about jobs in big companies however if you are satisfied with small jobs then you can get one in home town itself.

I live in a small town and I have ventured out of it quite a bit. It's easy to get bored because there isn't much to do here. I definitely think it's a good idea that people she not stay in the same place their whole life. It doesn't present any real qualities of what the world is like.

I want to work in my home town for job...

i left my home town to find work when i was 16, now days im tring to emigrate so im tring to leave my home country to get a job...and to cheer the wife up

I always want to roam around, though tough and lonely, the worth tastes no worse than a cup of long-stored wine. The different people, culture and expriences all around could turn into the words on the paper, literally, our life is going on as a book! with all the tracks we are laying being the context within it!
Anyway, back to reality, so far i had one failed try, and till now still dare not to leave all the feelings behind and take the step up.

Hi Clorissa,

I don't like to travel outside my hometown to get a job. First of all, I don't want to leave my parents and my family. I know it is a good expose if we can get a stable job out of the hometown. But, definitely not for me..

I have a friend he had to leave her parents and girl friend to work abroad. After 3 years, he lost her girl friends and also could not earn much from his abroad job too.
