At this stage of my career, my roots are more important than job advancement. Extended family, sense of place, advanced rootedness. By contrast, in radio a third of the journalists bound to their areas by spouses were men. My husband would have to get a better position as well. Husband has ties to this city.
Husband is an attorney with a good firm here.
Husband's job prevents him from moving. Married to a local businessman. My wife's career. After three moves in 12 years, I'm tired of moving. I'm home now.
