Work. Loving Houston tho. Can’t see myself living anywhere in America

Spousal job relocation (army)

Work

Work (big corporate law firm). The pay is identical to our NYC office, but here there are no state taxes and cost of living is less than half. Plus, shorter commute, bigger house, etc. It’s a no brainer!

I moved here for my job. I don't really love it here but I don't hate it either. The weather def took me some time to adjust to though I won't lie to you.

I’m new on the job search and still employed. I’m looking to grow further in the logistics industry. While I look for work, it’s a bit discouraging seeing how hundreds of people apply for positions I see on LinkedIn. I still apply because you never know and AI plays a huge effect in selections. Should I even bother applying when there are more than 100 applications?
